Runaway Lyrics & Tabs by Devlin feat. Yasmin
Runaway
guitar chords lyrics
Listen, yeah
Lifetime of dreaming, visualizing paradise
I woke up, and rolled over and told my girl we're leaving
It's time to sacrifice the lot because you ain't happy with your job
And 'round here it's like nothing seems appealing
So let me know you feel the same
Throw your life into a case and we'll depart from Victoria this evening
And then embark on a path of rediscovery
Searching for the fruits from the lost garden of Eden
I'm wondering if I run away and came back another day
Then would the young men roll with the metal put the guns away
And when the devil who took charge will the slums be safe
I pray that life's right for everybody's mummies' sake
And if I could disappear for years and re-appear
Will my natural intuition still be crystal clear
I pray that life's right for everybody's mummies' sake
And if I could disappear for years and re-appear
Will my natural intuition still be crystal clear
Or will I have lost clarity
Through this trivial pursuit we're walking through so casually
I gotta leave, I gotta go
There's nothing here for me no more
I gotta be free
I gotta be somewhere that I can just be me
And I'll run, run, runaway
Run, run, runaway
Run, run, runaway
I'll runaway
We'll share a last cigarette and walk into the station
Purchase two tickets to an alien destination
Board the train and witness pain upon the faces
Of multi-culture races
But not me and my girl, we're breaking free like an escapist
'Cause we need to escape this and I for one have got my mind made up
Even if where we stay is makeshift
I can't remain in this domain of semi-ape shit because all I see is hatred
I wonder if I disappeared how many men would miss me
Or would they all forget like I erased my name from history
I'm still trying yet to make a break within the chain of pain and misery
And vanish off the planet like a mystery
And if I did return would things be the same but worse
You see the gear stick shift and then whip reverse
And I'd be straight back on my travels
Burning rubber over gravel 'til we see the English channel
I gotta leave, I gotta go
There's nothing here for me no more
I gotta be free
I gotta be somewhere that I can just be me
And I'll run, run, runaway
Run, run, runaway
Run, run, runaway
I'll runaway
As the carriage pulls away
I'll pull my lady closer, and I'll tell her she's okay
'Cause if we never broke the barricades today we'd always be afraid
And left to feel threatened in this dark and deadly maze
But now I've come of age and as the train starts entering
Suburbia a smile comes across my face
The unwinding of eternal rage
That was locked up inside just like my mates behind prison gates
If I could runaway and come back another day
I'll let this song play on the summer's longest day
Kick back and just enjoy the rays
All the lager and the shit to blaze
If I ever contemplate returning to this crazy place
I'll leave it long enough so they don't recognize my face
I'll let this song play on the summer's longest day
While we roll upon the roads of the motorway
I gotta leave, I gotta go
There's nothing here for me no more
I gotta be free
I gotta be somewhere that I can just be me
And I'll run, run, runaway
Run, run, runaway
Run, run, runaway, I'll runaway
