Runaway

Have I ever told you?
What it was like to leave my friends
Leave the house that I grew up in
And learn to look ahead
Have I ever told you
How everyday I sift on through?
Another million new faces
But still I'm in my same pair of shoes from

Eighth grade graduation
Sharpie hearts, purple laces
Nowadays all I get are postcards
Saying how great life's so far
Mine's full of complications
Distance will only make us
Remember where we all came from
'Cause we're all on the run

Little runaway
Runaway at heart
No matter what we say
She knows, she knows, she knows
Little runaway
Runaway at heart
No matter what we say
She knows, she knows, she knows

Have I ever told you
What it was like after one year?
I fell in love with taking pictures
Got real drunk and pierced my ears
Have I ever told you
That I'm okay with feeling scared?
You may think it's permanent
But still I'm in my same pair of shoes from

Eighth grade graduation
Sharpie hearts, purple laces
Nowadays all I get are postcards
Saying how great life's so far
Mine's full of complications
Distance will only make us
Remember where we all came from
'Cause we're all on the run

Little runaway
Runaway at heart
No matter what we say
She knows, she knows, she knows
Little runaway
Runaway at heart
No matter what we say
But still I'm in my same pair of shoes from

Eighth grade graduation
Sharpie hearts, purple laces
Nowadays all I get are postcards
Saying how great life's so far
Mine's full of complications
Distance will only makes us
Remember where we all came from
'Cause we're all on the run
