She came a real long way working towards paradise
Working that nine to five, but never working on her mind
She's had it about up to here, yeah
Her problems never disappear, yeah
Her dreams of an escape are left to sacrifice
And now she's running, running away
Far from all her troubles of society
Oh yeah she's leaving, leaving behind her past
Packing up all her things and she's never coming back
Now she's running, running away
Far from all her troubles of society
Now she's leaving, leaving behind her past
Packing up all her things and she's never coming back, yeah
Traveling down the same old road, yeah
She wishes for a way to let go
But her problems keep on stacking one by one
She often thinks about her home
And every now and then regrets leaving life on her own
So she keeps on striving forward working towards paradise
She says she cannot wait to get the hell up out of here
So every night she's getting higher than the stratosphere
Singing songs and playing music 'til she disappears
She knows that dancing to the rhythm will rid of her fears
She's in pursuit to finally make it to the weekend
She's got a ticket to the show where she can pretend
That all the worries in her world will finally ascend
But when the music finally stops the night is at end
Now she's running, running away
Seeking for some change in her reality
Now she's leaving, leaving behind her past
Packing up all her things and she ain't ever coming back
Now she's running, running away
Far from all her troubles of society
Oh yeah she's leaving, leaving behind her past
Packing up all her things and she's never coming back
Woah, woah yeah
Packing up all her things and she ain't ever coming back
Woah yeah, she's never coming back
Packing up all her things and she ain't ever coming back
