She wakes up in the morning In the same room that she's been in her whole life And everything still looks the same But the feeling of the room has changed in spite
She said: "You don't know what it's like to be stuck in my mind" She said: "You don't know what it's like to be stuck in my mind all the time"
Bruised lips and the make-up Tattooed hips and pierced For the sake of letting everybody know She don't belong here Old tricks that she made up Attitude I don't give a fuck For the sake of letting everybody know She says I won't belong So long
It's not a lost cause She's just a runaway Is there nothing left for you to say? And if she comes home Do you think she'll want to stay?
She calls at seven thirty And wants to talk about her boyfriend one last time Mom and Dad are fighting in the background, Shattered glass cuts through red wine
I said: "I don't know that I'm right but I know that you're wrong" I said: "I don't know that I'm right but I know that you're wrong this time"
Bruised lips and the make-up Tattooed hips and pierced For the sake of letting everybody know She don't belong here Old tricks that she made up Attitude I don't give a fuck For the sake of letting everybody know She says I won't belong So long
It's not a lost cause She's just a runaway Is there nothing left for you to say? And if she comes home Do you think she'll want to stay? Is there anything for her? She's a runaway Turn your back on yesterday She's a runaway
Blacked out Passed out at a party In another town With the same old Bacardi Nothing ever changes what's inside me Someone find me, someone find me My heart showed me the way out Don't stop Don't give up on me now Two beats, two streets Too many repeats to blow my only other way out
It's not a lost cause She's just a runaway Is there nothing left for you to say? And if she comes home Do you think she'll want to stay? Is there anything for her?
