I´ve got my things packed, my favorite pillow
Got my sleeping bag, climb out the window
All the pictures and pain, I´ve left behind
All the freedom and fame, I´ve gotta find
And I wonder, how long it will take them

To notice that I´m gone
And I wonder, how far it´ll take me
To run away, it don´t make any sense to me
Run away, this life makes no sense to me
Run away, it don´t make any sense to me
Run away, it don´t make any sense to me
I was just trying to be myself, have it your way, I´ll meet you in hell
It´s all these secrets that I shouldn´t tell, I´ve got to run away
It´s hypocritical of you, do as you say not as you do
I´ll never be your perfect girl, I´ve got to run away
Well, I´m too young to be taken seriously
But I´m too old to believe all this hypocrisy
And I wonder, how long it will take them to see my bed is made

And I wonder
If I was a mistake, I might have nowhere left to go
But I know that I cannot go home
These words are strapped inside my head
Tell me to run before I´m dead
Chase the rainbows in my mind
And I will try to stay alive
Maybe the world will know one day
Why won´t you help me run away
It don´t make any sense to me, run away
This life makes no sense to me, run away
I could sing for change on a Paris street
Be a red light dancer in New Orleans
I could start again to the family
I could change my name, come and go as I please
In the dead of night
You´ll wonder where I´ve gone

Wasn´t it you, wasn´t it you
Wasn´t it you that made me run away
I was just trying to be myself, have it your way I´ll meet you in hell
All these secrets that I shouldn´t tell, I´ve got to run away
Hypocritical of you, do as you say not as you do
Never be your perfect girl, I´ve got to run away
It don´t make any sense to me, run away
This life makes no sense to me, run away
It don´t make any sense to me, run away
It don´t make any sense to me
This life makes no sense to me
It don´t make any sense to me
It don´t make any sense to me
Life don´t make any sense to me
