He lies awake, mad at the world
He never felt so small
He made mistakes, he's messed around
Let others take the fall
He's been abused, sad, and confused
Convinced he knew it all
Now he don't know which way to go
Too scared to make the call
Running away from yourself
When you're alone, you got nobody else
Open your eyes
You can see it clearly
Running away
Her head's a mess
She's second best
This girl's the last to know
Just needs a chance to find romance
Someone to love her so
She's got a light so deep inside
Without a chance to grow
And now the blue sky turns to black
The winds begin to blow
Winds begin to blow
Running away from yourself
When you're alone, you got nobody else
Open your eyes
You can see it clearly
Running away
All of the times you turned away
(You turned away)
I know it's never easy
(I know it's never easy)
And when you fall, you'll never stay
I know it's never easy
I know it's never easy
Not easy
Running away from yourself
When you're alone, you got nobody else
Open your eyes
You can see it clearly
Running away
