Runaway

She wakes up in the morning
In the same room that she's been in her whole life
And everything still looks the same
But the feeling of the room has changed in spite

She said
"You don't know what it's like to be stuck in my mind
She said
"You don't know what it's like to be stuck in my mind all the time

Bruised lips and the make-up tattooed hips and pierced
For the sake of letting everybody know she don't belong here
Old tricks that she made up attitude I don't give a fuck
For the sake of letting everybody know she says I won't belong so long

It's not a lost 'cause she's just a runaway
Is there nothing left for you to say?
And if she comes home do you think she'll want to stay?

She calls at seven thirty
And wants to talk about her boyfriend one last time
Mom and dad are fighting in the background
Shattered glass cuts through red wine

I said
"I don't know that I'm right but I know that you're wrong
I said
"I don't know that I'm right but I know that you're wrong this time

Bruised lips and the make-up tattooed hips and pierced
For the sake of letting everybody know she don't belong here
Old tricks that she made up attitude I don't give a fuck
For the sake of letting everybody know she says I won't belong so long

It's not a lost 'cause she's just a runaway
Is there nothing left for you to say?
And if she comes home do you think she'll want to stay?
Is there anything for her?
She's a runaway turn your back on yesterday, she's a runaway

Blacked out passed out at a party in another town
With the same old Bacardi nothing ever changes what's inside me
Someone find me, someone find me my heart showed me the way out
Don't stop don't give up on me now two beats, two streets
Too many repeats to blow my only other way out

It's not a lost 'cause she's just a runaway
Is there nothing left for you to say?
And if she comes home do you think she'll want to stay?
Is there anything for her?

It's not a lost 'cause she's just a runaway
Is there nothing left for you to say?
And if she comes home do you think she'll want to stay?
Is there anything for her?
She's a runaway turn your back on yesterday, she's a runaway
