Runaway

[Verse 1] Hello, my love I'm so sorry at this hour I had to wake you up But I just called you to let you know I'm on my way I've been excited to be with you throughout yesterday Can't wait until the moment we meet face to face I've left a little letter for my parents back at my place Left my mobile phone at home so that they can't track me But they are the reason that I'm feeling far from happy The news and the police will only report me missing Really, I'm off somewhere with you hugging and kissing And deep down, I pray my location to them's a mystery If they find out where I am, they'll drag me back to misery All they do is talk about you like you're a catfish And that if I want to be with you, I'm taking the piss They see me talking to you and act like it's an eyesore And just earlier, they said I can't talk to you anymore! But what the fuck do THEY know? Your voice is heavenly, that's why I'm at this payphone So I waited 'till they were fast asleep, that was my mark To hop out of bed, out the house and into the dark I’ve got a bit of money in my little orange wallet Some bags with my belongings and my car that's foreign Driving through the roads by only the glow of the moon I love you sweetheart and I hope to see you soon [Hook] I'm giving you a night call to tell you how I feel I'm gonna tell you something you don't want to hear I'm gonna show you where it's dark, but have no fear I'm giving you a night call to tell you how I feel [Verse 2] I’ve been so scared since my son disappeared As a parent it’s a kidnapping that I’ve feared I walked into his room, as calm as the ocean To find his bed empty and his window wide open! I’ve read his note and all I have are mixed feelings Like Lil Wayne, my worries are having no ceilings! If he wanted to talk on Facebook, then that’s fine But I told him not to talk to that person online! He doesn’t know if that person is really honest Even though he swears that person made a promise But the thing with promises is that they get broken Now I’m crying in this room, stumbling over words spoken! Maybe this is my fault Maybe I shouldn’t have kept him shut up like a bank vault I mean, my son hasn’t been gone for too long But now I’m asking myself where did I go wrong? I’ve said this before, but I’m so fucking scared That he’ll be found dead in a ditch somewhere I told him if he planned to see her, that he was insane! But now I’m anxious that I’ll never see him again Every time the door knocks, I always hold my breath I fear the police, telling me my son’s been found dead He doesn’t know the route to her, who knows where he’ll roam For fuck’s sake son, I beg you, please come back home! [Hook] [Verse 3] Hey Jack, so I’ve thought about your phone call And I’ve got second thoughts with the drama and all Your parents have been worried sick since you went missing You should go back and this is not me tripping I agree with your parents not talking to me We’ll have the world in our hair like lice and fleas Plus, where will we both go to avoid capture? Really, your plan’s as stable as a bone fracture Mate please! We barely know each other! Think about your step sister, brother, father and mother! I know we talk to each other like we’re sacred treasure But running away from home is a rather extreme measure Besides you’re 21, I’m at least 3 years younger! Maybe it was dumb of me to give you my number Enough drama from this has already bubbled I beg you please, don’t add any more trouble! Forget about me! You’ve got your own life to grow! You said that if you loved me, you’d let me go! And really, I’m not talking about pounds and pence But I want to smack you, just to give some common sense! It’s not that I hate you now, that’s not the case It’s because I care about you, so end this chase! We can still be friends though, I’m telling you the truth But really, your family needs you more than I do [Hook]
