Have I ever told you? What it was like to leave my friends
Leave the house that I grew up in and learn to look ahead
Have I ever told you? How every day I sift on through
Another million new faces
But still I’m in my same pair of shoes from

8th, grade, graduation. Sharpie hearts, purple laces
Nowadays all I get are post cards
Saying how great life’s so far
Mines full of complications. Distance will only make us
Remember what we all came from. Cause we’re all on the run

Little runaway. Runaway at heart
No matter what we say. She knows, she knows, she knows
Little runaway. Runaway at heart
No matter what we say. She knows, she knows, she knows

Have I ever told you? What it was like after one year
I fell in love with taking pictures. Got real drunk and pierced my ears
Have I ever told you? That I’m okay with feeling scared
You may think it’s permanent
But still I’m in my same pair of shoes from

8th, grade, graduation. Sharpie hearts, purple laces
Nowadays all I get are post cards
Saying how great life’s so far
Mines full of complications. Distance will only make us
Remember what we all came from. Cause we’re all on the run

Little runaway. Runaway at heart
No matter what we say. She knows, she knows, she knows
Little runaway. Runaway at heart
No matter what we say
But still I’m in my same pair of shoes from

8th, grade, graduation. Sharpie hearts, purple laces
Nowadays all I get are post cards
Saying how great life’s so far
Mines full of complications. Distance will only make us
Remember what we all came from. Cause we’re all on the run
