I Just Want To Runaway
So I thought to myself you can write a book and you can write a poem. Why not a song? Well let me tell you, it’s not as easy as people make it look. I kept wanting to rhyme things like it was a poem and I guess it’s a story but much shorter and it can say many different things depending on what one feels when they read/hear it. It’s played to a beat only I can hear because I’m not a music maker. Just a writer who tried to play her hand at being a song writer. Don’t know if it will ever be a Grammy winner because even though I can sing I’m not all about the spot light of being a performer. I just like to write. Well here it is in all it’s glory saying whatever it needs to say to whoever it needs to say it to. Maybe one day I’ll write another one but for now I’ll stick to novels and poetry.
I Just Want To Runaway
Verse 1:
Look into the mirror, don’t like what I see
Why is it that people seem to always count on me
One foot out the doorway, I just want to runaway
From the hurt
From the lies
From the tears I’ve cried inside
From all the pain
If it’s all the same
I’ll never love again
Chorus:
I just want to runaway
I don’t want to fight today
This pain inside
I just want to hide away
I just want to runaway
I want all this hurt to wash away
My tears
Time to face my deepest fears
Verse 2:
Look into my heart, do you see the scars
Nothing you can do or say would make them go away
Picking up the pieces, wanting to start brand new
From the hurt
From the lies
From the screaming of my soul
Loud and clear
I just want you near
How do I make you hear?
Chorus:
I just want to runaway
I don’t want to fight today
This pain inside
I just want to hide away
I just want to runaway
I want all this hurt to wash away
My tears
Time to face my deepest fears
Bridge:
But when it’s all said and done
The damage has been done
All the loneliness has stolen my breath away
How to make you stay?
Still you walk away
From me
Never to return
The damage has been done
Chorus:
I just want to runaway
I don’t want to fight today
This pain inside
I just want to hide away
I just want to runaway
I want all this hurt to wash away
My tears
Time to face my deepest fears
I just want to runaway
I don’t want to fight today
This pain inside
I just want to hide away
I just want to runaway
I wag all this hurt to wash away
My tears
Time to face my deepest fears
