In the shadows of my mind, I find no peace
Broken memories, they won't let me be
Every step I take, I feel the chains
Pulling me back, drowning in the pain
But I see a glimmer, a distant light
A place where I can heal, a place to fight
So I gather my strength with all my might
Ready to soar, ready to take flight
Runaway, I'm a runaway
Chasing down the daylight
Trying to escape the night
Runaway, I'm a runaway
Running from the heartache
Running from the fight
The past keeps calling, whispering my name
Haunting every corner, feeding on my shame
But I won't look back, won't be held down
In this race for freedom, I won't drown
With the wind in my back, fire in my soul
I'll break these chains, make myself whole
I'll find a new path, I'll find my way
In the light of a brand new day
Runaway, I'm a runaway
Chasing down the daylight
Trying to escape the night
Runaway, I'm a runaway
Running from the heartache
Running from the fight
Every mile I cover, the pain starts to fade
The scars are reminders of the battles I've made
But I'll keep on running through the storm and rain
With every step forward, I'll break away the chains
Runaway, I'm a runaway
Chasing down the daylight
Trying to escape the night
Runaway, I'm a runaway
Running from the heartache
Running from the fight
Runaway, I'm a runaway
With the dawn on the horizon, everything will be alright
Runaway, I'm a runaway
Leaving all the sorrow, stepping into the light
