lyrics

The back porch is softer than my bed
'Cause it hasn’t seen the times I’ve cried
I keep ‘em all there filed away in my head

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again
On bad days it’s like a poison, it destroys and
Stains every place I’ve ever called my home

And I just wanna run away
I wanna run toward something new
I wanna run away
I wanna run, I wanna run, I wanna run

But how do I know when I’m done?
How do I know, how do I know
How do I know when to run

Wherever I go, I always know
All that will follow, but give me a chance
To simply set today apart from tomorrow

Will I ever stop stopping to wonder
If I savor lightning far too quick,
Burn through what’s bright, before I’ve even heard the thunder

And I just wanna run away
I wanna run toward something new
I wanna run away
I wanna run, I wanna run, I wanna run

But how do I know when I’m done
How do I know
How do I know, how do I know when to run

I bought a cake, it’s no one’s birthday
And now my mouth is blue
I feel the sugar coursing through
I didn’t know what else to do

But I’ll trade coffee for water
It’ll last about a week
I’ll rinse two new tattoos
For fifteen minutes at the kitchen sink

And I will find a way to make it back to where I’ve been before
And I will try today ‘ to open stead of closing every door
And I will find a way ‘ to tell myself ‘ that I’ve been there before
And I will try today ‘ to open stead of closing every door
