Run Away Home

Sometimes I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders

And it brings me to my knees

Sometimes, I feel as though the things I know I can't control

Somehow find a way to take control of me

At the point I can no longer fight it

The only way I can describe it

That feelin' when I'm feelin' all alone

I wanna run away, run away home

Sometimes, it gets so hard to find that silver linin'

When the clouds come rollin' in

A sky of blue turns to gray and there's no shelter from the rain

And it feels as though the storm will never end

That's when there's nothin' like a mother's arms

To break the fall and heal the scars

In those times when I feel lost and all alone

I wanna run away, run away home

Long enough to get my feet back on the ground

Where I can rest and catch my breath and lay my burdens down

Back where no one knows me except those few who love me only

For who I was, not what I am, where I can be myself again

Sometimes I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders

And it brings me to my knees

Sometimes, I feel as though the things I know I can't control

Somehow find a way to take control of me

At the point I can no longer fight it

The only way I can describe it

That feelin' when I'm feelin' all alone

I wanna run away, run away home
