Run Away (the Escape Song) Lyrics - Oingo Boingo

Run away 

Run away from here 

Run away 

Run away from here 

Run away all alone 

Run away from fear 

Run away from sadness 

Run away from tears 

Run away from home 

From the wife and kids 

From the cats and the doggies 

Run away to forgive 

Run into the light 

Run away from here 

Hide away in the lion's den 

Play with matches and get burned 

Flyin' high in an aeroplane 

Run away, run away, run away 

In a fast car on a highway 

Burnin' tracks towards sunset 

No turning back and no regrets 

I'll think of you if I don't forget 

Run away 

Run away, run away 

Run away from here 

Run away from the church 

Run away from guilt 

Run away from your dream 

Everything you built 

Run into the light 

Run into the light 

Run away from here 

Hide away in the lion's den 

Play with matches and get burned 

Flyin' high in an aeroplane 

Run away, run away, run away 

In a fast car on a highway 

Burnin' tracks towards sunset 

No turning back and no regrets 

I'll think of you 

Run away from the office 

From your old work shoes 

Run away from crime 

And the big city blues 

Run away from money 

And the jaws of death 

Run away from lawyers 

And the government 

Run away from your friends 

And your family too 

Run away from yourself 

Run away from you 

Run away from here 

Run away, run away 

Run away from here 

Run away from here
