Running Away in my Thirty Minutes
Do they know what I’m thinking?
No, they could never guess, not something like me leaving
Do they think they can control my life?
Like what ever I do has no meaning, but they don’t know…
How dare they say that I can’t be me?
What else could I be… not likely much more
Why do they think that they’re in control?
What gives them that right….. I control more
How dare they prevent me from seeing my best friend?
Like they haven’t tortured me enough with their lies
Obviously they don’t get it… will they ever learn?
Like I actually care.. Really. Try me
Could I just walk out of this place, and never look back?
No- Alexis could walk through the fire
Could I stay hidden for a week, and then come back?
No- Alexis could, she’s been doing this for years
I’m not Alexis, though, this time- I want to be
If I’m in a place like this, how will they ever see?
I’m not Alexis, though this time I want to try
They crossed the last line, now they get to deal with it
I won’t miss this, so I’m taking my chance
I will get out of here, if it’s the last thing I do
If its about power, my will against them, lets dance
There’s no way in hell, but hell, maybe I’ll stay?
No, they could never guess, not something like me leaving
Do they think they can control my life?
Like what ever I do has no meaning, but they don’t know…
How dare they say that I can’t be me?
What else could I be… not likely much more
Why do they think that they’re in control?
What gives them that right….. I control more
How dare they prevent me from seeing my best friend?
Like they haven’t tortured me enough with their lies
Obviously they don’t get it… will they ever learn?
Like I actually care.. Really. Try me
Could I just walk out of this place, and never look back?
No- Alexis could walk through the fire
Could I stay hidden for a week, and then come back?
No- Alexis could, she’s been doing this for years
I’m not Alexis, though, this time- I want to be
If I’m in a place like this, how will they ever see?
I’m not Alexis, though this time I want to try
They crossed the last line, now they get to deal with it
I won’t miss this, so I’m taking my chance
I will get out of here, if it’s the last thing I do
If its about power, my will against them, lets dance
There’s no way in hell, but hell, maybe I’ll stay?
