Someday I'll Run Away

Slumped on the corner

West Boulevard Street

Did you even remember

Or did you forget me

I know it's so easy for you to

Push me aside

You've done it so many times

All my life

Watching the cars go by

Lights on bright

Sun's down and the moon is up

Time for night

Still looking at my watch

And all I do is heave a sigh

You've done it again

Left me here and went

I'm alone in your care

Push me around so unaware

I could be gone you wouldn't know I'm not there

I'm alone every day

Shunned by you and every word you say

Always leaving me

Someday I'll run away

Rain starts to pour

Lightening strikes

Thunder begins roars

Mist blinds my sight

I move beneath a canopy

My blood will freeze

Wondering if you'll even bother

To come for me

Shuddering in my wet clothes

Holding my knees tight

The wind howls

And I can't help to cry

Whenever I am afraid

There's no one there

To let me know it'll be ok

There's no one to save me

I'm alone in your care

Push me around so unaware

I could be gone you wouldn't know I'm not there

I'm alone every day

Shunned by you and every word you say

Always leaving me

Someday I'll run away

Far away

Far away

Where I won't be locked in this cage

I'll be free to find my way

And I won't be sitting on the side

Waiting for you to tear my life

To hurt my heart

Like the way you do now

I'll be far away

(Far away)

So far away

(Far away)

I'm going to run away

So I won't be alone anymore

(Guitar solo)

Slumped on the corner

Watching the cars go by

Rain starts to pour

I'm shuddering in my wet clothes

(Pause)

I'm alone in your care

(I'm alone)

Push me around so unaware

(So unaware)

I could be gone you wouldn't know I'm not there

(You wouldn't know)

I'm alone every day

(I'm alone)

Shunned by you and every word you say

(Every word you say)

Always leaving me

(Always leaving me)

Someday I'll run away

I'm alone in your care

Push me around so unaware

I could be gone you wouldn't know I'm not there

I'm alone every day

Shunned by you and every word you say

Always leaving me

Someday I'll run away

Someday I'll run away
