Songtexte Runaway - Audio Idols

Too many cars, men in bars and broken hearts

Riding a bus that takes them nowhere

Too many houses, narrow streets and narrow minds

And this little town has done for me

I can live behind a smile but I'll never breathe

I can make the best of life but I'll never leave

For the sanctity of soul, I'd better run away

I can fool myself, it's fine but I'm falling in

If I run as fast as them, will I ever win?

Pick your arms up, baby, fly, I'm gonna run away

My lights are out, TV on, the words are gone

So many angels without voices

We're in the city, it never waits, it only hates

And I wish your love were enough for me

I can live behind a smile but I'll never breathe

I can make the best of life but I'll never leave

For the sanctity of soul, I'd better run away

I can fool myself, it's fine but I'm falling in

If I run as fast as them, could I ever win?

Pick your arms up, baby, fly, I'm gonna run away

And I don't know what you've been told

But there's a better world to find

From this place that's getting old

And it ain't no place to die

There's something in my eyes

Too far to fantasize

And I'm searching for the prize

Mama said pick yourself up off the floor

Life's just a bowl of nothing more

So you can't find love but you make the best of it

Crack a smile at the hand that slapped you down

Show them the other cheek and turn around

You can't win so you better not try

But mama, that ain't so

I can live behind a smile but I'll never breathe

I can make the best of life but I'll never leave

For the sanctity of soul, I'd better run away

I can fool myself, it's fine but I'm falling in

If I run as fast as them, could I ever win?

Pick your arms up, baby, fly, I'm gonna run away

And I don't know what you've been told
