[English]

I need a place where I can be alone

Only my conscience my skin and my bones

'Cause I cannot face

This mess that I've made

It's gotten too out of control

I just wanna runaway

Go to where nobody knows my name

And stop the madness here

Can I please just runaway?

And go to where nobody knows my face

And start the whole thing over

And start the whole thing over

I need a place where I can be myself

Far away from the judgement I've felt

My body and soul don't feel like my own

Been living in someone else's hell

And I just wanna runaway

Go to where nobody knows my name

And stop the madness here

Can I please just runaway?

And go to where nobody knows my face

And start the whole thing over

And start the whole thing over

...
