I don't participate in culture cus I'm too bored to understand
Or stay focused for long enough for a search and rescue plan
I'm always crying wolf while buried alive in a grave I dug myself
Or talking my way out of growing up and getting help
I'm gonna run away, I'm gonna break the same, don't make me wait until I'm black and blue
I'm gonna run away, I'm gonna break the same, don't make me wait too long cus I turn to stone for you
You're sixty percent though your fifties but your forties weren't so bad
You spent your thirties complaining about your twenties being sad
Oh and your teenage years, well those were the worst, but if you had to pinpoint it, your first couple years on this earth were where it really went to shit
I'm gonna run away, I'm gonna break the same, don't make me wait until I'm black and blue
I'm gonna run away, I'm gonna break the same, don't make me wait too long cus I turn to stone for you
nomatter when the crossroads come and no matter where the beaten path might go, I tend to be a touch or two, early or late, to be grasping for control
I'm gonna die trying too hard to cut my teeth on the hands that feed
gonna slowly but surely run out of blood and dignity
I turn to stone with the glow of the television when it's on
and ride the waves of the radio with the extinct, dead, and gone
And after all the longest hours have come and gone and come and past
All the longest hours were for nothin'
I'm gonna run away, I'm gonna break the same, don't make me wait until I'm black and blue
