RUNAWAY LYRICS

VERSE 1
A lifetime of dreaming
Visualizing paradise
I woke up and rolled over and told my girl we're leaving
It's time to sacrifice a lot
You should be happy with your job
& round here it's like nothing seems appealing
So let me know you feel the same.
Throw your life into a case,
& we'll depart from Victoria this evening.
& then embark upon a path of big discovery
Searching for the fruits from the lost garden of Eden

I'm wondering if I run away and came back another day,
Then would the young men who roll with metal put their guns away?
& will the devil take charge? & will the slums be safe?
I pray the latter's right for everybody's Mumses sake.
And if I could disappear for years and then reappear
Would my natural intuition still be crystal clear?
Or would I have lost clarity?
In this trivial pursuit we're walking through so casually.

BRIDGE
If I could run away and come back another day,
I'll let the song play, on the suns longest day,
Kick back and just enjoy the rays,
With a lager and a joint to blaze.

If I ever contemplate and turn into this crazy place,
I'll leave it long enough so they don't recognize my face,
I'll let this song play on the summers longest day,
When we roll upon the roads along the motorway.

CHORUS
I gotta leave
I gotta go
There's nothing here for me no more
I gotta be free
I gotta be, somewhere that I can just be me
& I run, run, run away
Run, run, run away (x2)
I'll run away.

VERSE 2
We shared our last cigarette then walked into the station,
Purchased two tickets to an alien destination,
Board the train and witnessed pain upon the faces of multicultural races,
But not me and my girl we're breaking free like an escapist.
Cus we need to escape this.
And I for one have got my mind made up,
Even if where we're staying is makeshift,
I cant remain in this domain it'll send me ape-shit.
Cuz all I see is hatred.
I wonder if I disappear how many men will miss me,
Or will they all forget if I erase my name in history.
I'm still trying yet to make a break within the chain of pain and misery,
& vanish off the planet like a mystery.
& if I did return and things were the same or worse,
You see the gear stick shift and then the whip reverse,
& I'll be straight back on my travels,
Burning rubber over gravel till we see the English Channel.

BRIDGE
If I could run away and come back another day
I'll let the song play, on the suns longest day
Kick back and just enjoy the rays.
With a lager and a joint to blaze.

If I ever contemplate and turn into this crazy place
I'll leave it long enough so they don't recognize my face
I'll let this song play on the summers longest day
When we roll upon the roads along the motorway.




CHORUS
I gotta leave
I gotta go
There's nothing here for me no more
I gotta be free
I gotta be, somewhere that I can just be me
& I run, run, run away
Run, run, run away (x2)
I'll run away.

VERSE 3
As the carriage pulls away,
I pull my lady closer and I tell her she's okay.
Cus if we never broke the barricades today,
We'd always be afraid and left to feel threatened in this dark & deadly maze.
& now I've come of age and as the train starts entering suburbia,
A smile comes across my face.
The unwinding of eternal rage,
That was locked up inside just like my mates behind prison gates.




BRIDGE
If I could run away and come back another day
I'll let the song play, on the suns longest day
Kick back and just enjoy the rays.
With a lager and a joint to blaze.

If I ever contemplate and turn into this crazy place
I'll leave it long enough so they don't recognize my face
I'll let this song play on the summers longest day
When we roll upon the roads along the motorway.

CHORUS
I gotta leave
I gotta go
There's nothing here for me no more
I gotta be free
I gotta be, somewhere that I can just be me
& I run, run, run away
Run, run, run away (x2)
I'll run away.
