Run Away

I wake at the sound of a dog at my makeshift bed
a pain in my chest blood drips from my head

only a small cut no big deal
put a bandage over it easy to heal

sore from running all night and day
wish i had somewhere to stay

as i sit up in slow motion
i get one of those notions

that i am on the run
or known as the run away kid

here he comes to kick me out
i grab my bag and I'm up and about

on the road again not a surprise
I'm wide awake and on the rise

climbing the mountain and walking on the side
no one knows how run aways are minds are fired

thinking about this and that
how they used to have a home but are replaced by a cat

guess I'm not good enough for my own mother
how i wish she loved me so i could be with her

too late for that now if she cared she'd look
but that cat and her boyfriend is all it took

for me to run away never again to be found
this town is not home anymore so come on hound

lets be free
and live the life of luxury

as the run away kid
and the run away dog
