I need a break from it all
Some space from it all for a minute
I'm trying' to make sense of it all
This place is so unforgiving

Wanting and waiting
And somehow it's another winter
Big plans and big dreams, they are running out

'Cause I'm running away
Running away
I gotta do it
Make my escape from the world I’ve been living in
Nothing is holding me down
I'm leaving this town
I gotta do it
Deep down I know that as long as I stay true
It doesn't matter where I'm running to

Yeah

Standing alone in a crowd
Can't find my way out, but I'm trying'
Everything is within my reach
But everything seems like it's nothing
When you're looking for something that's better
Than what is around you
All these illusions, they are running out

Cause I’m running away
Running away
I gotta do it
Make my escape from the world I’ve been living in
Nothing is holding me down
I'm leaving this town
I gotta do it
Deep down I know that as long as I stay true
It doesn't matter where I'm running

And all I wanted was someone who could see that I ain’t
Just like anybody
All I needed was someone 
Who could tell me it's alright
I've waited all this time to be a part of something
I want it so bad
And there's no reason to be looking back
Cause now I know I finally feel alive

Yeah

Cause I'm running away
Running away
I gotta do it
Make my escape from the world I’ve been living in
Nothing is holding me down
I'm leaving this town
I gotta do it
Deep down I know that as long as I stay true
It doesn't matter where I'm running to

Running away, running away
I gotta do it
Make my escape from the world I’ve been living in
Nothing is holding me down
I'm leaving this town
I gotta do it
Deep down I know that as long as I stay true
It doesn't matter where I'm running
Running to
