The two of us are always hanging out
Getting in trouble when we sneak out
To the bridge at the north-east side of town
Missing school, hopping trains 'til the sun goes down
You said that one day we could run away
Escape the troubles that we face each day
Take a chance, roll the die, then we hold on tight
We got eachother we could be alright
We could be, living free
We would be alright
Run away into the dying light
Shooting stars at twilight
Butterflies that take flight
Leave behind our misery
We could start again living large as kings
Here they call us rejects
But I know we're perfect
Leave behind reality
Running free, you and me
We're thick as thieves
We're at the bottom of the barrel here
Been living lowly for a few good years
Our sins are canyons running deep
Can't climb from the pit, the walls are too steep
Cut our losses and leave this town
Maybe someday when things have calmed down
We'll return with our heads held to the sky
We got each other we could be alright
We could be, living free
We would be alright
Run away into the dying light
Shooting stars at twilight
Butterflies that take flight
Leave behind our misery
We could start again living large as kings
Here they call us rejects
But I know we're perfect
Leave behind reality
Running free, you and me
We're thick as thieves
