Don't lie and say that it's OK.
It's alright if there's nothing more to say.

So I'm running away.

I'm leaving this place.

Yeah, I'm running away.

I'm running away.


Don't tell me, I'm the one to blame.

It's too late for you to make me stay.

No, I won't stay.

So I'm running away.

I'm leaving this place.

Yeah, I'm running away.

I'm running away.


And faster than you can follow me from this lonely place.

And farther than you can find me, I'm leaving

Yeah I'm leaving today.

And I, I'll never let you find me.

I'm leaving you behind with the past

No, I won't look back.

And I don't want to hear your reasons.

Don't want to hear you tell me why I should stay.


And try, and try to understand me

And try to understand what I say when I say I can't stay

I, I'm moving on from this place

I'm leaving and I won't quit running away.


I'm running away.

I'm leaving this place.

Yeah, I'm running away.

I'm running away.

Running Away - Midnight Hour

Of all places, I heard this on an episode of Ghost Whisperer and fell in love with it instantly. And for those who watch Naruto, there's this Sasuke tribute video on YouTube which just fits. It makes my heart bleed.

I'm at a different stage in my life compared to my friends. Just when they're all starting to settle down, happy, content, at peace, I find myself still walking along the wind-swept, slightly lonely, quiet backroads of life, a crossroad at every junction, the horizon spreading out flat and empty before me. I don't begrudge them their happiness; I just wish I were happy again, happy in the way that's as effortless and as simple as breathing with happiness that washes over you like golden sunshine and bubbling laughter that lingers in the wind..

Where is that happy girl? Where has she gone? Come back to me, someday. I miss you.
