Runaway
I was a runaway
Running away from my family
I needed a sweet escape
Chasing the fame and the money
I didn't have a job
That 9-5 wasn't my fortune
No food on my table top
Wanted to fly saw me soarin', soarin'
I'm the black sheep of my clan
Oh my name and my image distorted ohhh
Yeah it's part of a bigger plan
No strings on my arms unsupported
But what can you do
You live and you choose
You make a wrong turn on your path and you lose
You reach for the stars, and they break your heart
It seems when you risk your life you're doomed before you start
Yeah I'm just a runaway
Running away from my family
I needed a sweet escape
Companionship could come in handy
Oh appelle moi les miserables
I live like there is no tomorrow
Don't like getting too attached, na na, yeah
Some like to call me Miss Hollow
Cuz I'm broken
And mispoken
Consumed by emotion
Slow erosion, but always in motion
Losing limbs every block
Singing hymns day and night
Racing in shock
What can I say?
I learned it the hard way
I fell on my face
And then I got up
I scraped off my knees and said this is enough
The underdogs win in the end
I got nothing to prove or defend no no, oh
I've been abused, confused
My kindness unappreciated
Might get gone I might get faded
Yeah I been feeling jaded
Cuz I'm a runaway
Poison and contaminated
I've seen brighter days
I can't help myself
And I don't really need no help
No I don't really need no help
Noooo
Cuz I'm just a runaway
Running away from my family
No I didn't mean to stray
Running away from my family
I needed a sweet escape
Chasing the fame and the money
I didn't have a job
That 9-5 wasn't my fortune
No food on my table top
Wanted to fly saw me soarin', soarin'
I'm the black sheep of my clan
Oh my name and my image distorted ohhh
Yeah it's part of a bigger plan
No strings on my arms unsupported
But what can you do
You live and you choose
You make a wrong turn on your path and you lose
You reach for the stars, and they break your heart
It seems when you risk your life you're doomed before you start
Yeah I'm just a runaway
Running away from my family
I needed a sweet escape
Companionship could come in handy
Oh appelle moi les miserables
I live like there is no tomorrow
Don't like getting too attached, na na, yeah
Some like to call me Miss Hollow
Cuz I'm broken
And mispoken
Consumed by emotion
Slow erosion, but always in motion
Losing limbs every block
Singing hymns day and night
Racing in shock

No I don't really need no help
Noooo
Cuz I'm just a runaway
Running away from my family
No I didn't mean to stray
