From the recording Just Want To Run Away
This is not the way I thought my life would be someday,
I had everything planned, I don’t understand how it turned out this way.
I had so much faith, but it’s been chased away by doubt,
Now I’m facing my fear that things can go wrong and not always work out,
I just want to run away, as far as I can go
until I run into the ocean then I’ll dive in and swim
'til I am far away, from all this commotion
then I’ll land upon an island, one where nobody can find me
and the sun will shine, and I’ll stare into the sky
while I just lie there on the sand until I make a new life plan.
I remember life when it was not turned upside down,
I can hardly believe I’m watching my world just come crashing down.
So I sit alone and wonder what I should do now,
I feel so bad inside, I want to move on but I don’t know how.
I just want to run away, as far as I can go
until I run into the ocean then I’ll dive in and swim
'til I am far away, from all this commotion
then I’ll land upon an island, one where nobody can find me
and the sun will shine, and I’ll stare into the sky
while I just lie there on the sand until I make a new life plan.
Deep down inside, I want to believe again,
I need to feel, like the old me again, but right now
I just want to run away, as far as I can go
until I run into the ocean then I’ll dive in and swim
'til I am far away, from all this commotion
then I’ll land upon an island, one where nobody can find me
and the sun will shine, and I’ll stare into the sky
while I just lie there on the sand until I make a new life plan.
