Runaway
-------------------------------------------

Oh mother my hands are bleeding Can you tell me it’s not that bad. Oh mother can you please stop crying It makes it hurt more to see you sad. Oh father can you calm her down? I know this isn’t very pretty. Oh father we all hate this town. Why don’t we move to the city? Where we can get a new home And maybe make a new friend And we can be free to roam And maybe start over again. Where we can follow the beats Of a talented fool And we can walk these crowded streets With a skyline so blue. Oh mother don’t take it so hard I had no choice but to fight. Oh mother our hopes run quite far. So let me show you the light. Oh father we’ll all get new jobs. If we can run away from this place. Oh father, please stop the sobs. Running down mother’s face. Oh brother won’t you listen This isn’t our kingdom. Oh brother the signs, they all glisten Beckoning to our freedom. We can get a new home And maybe make a new friend And we can be free to roam And maybe start over again. We can follow the beats Of a talented fool And we can walk these crowded streets With a skyline so blue. Oh mother it’s time to go We let this get out of hand Oh mother it just goes to show That we are just like the sand Oh father you can’t figure it out There are so many like us Oh father we cannot hold more doubt We cannot fade like the dust. We can get a new home And maybe make a new friend And we can be free to roam And maybe start over again. Oh mother my hands are bleeding Can you tell me it’s not that bad.
