I'm getting sick of getting older
Having to own all my mistakes
Everything I want seems crazy
All my fears feel so misplaced

Run, run, run, run, run away is all I wanna do
I need a different point of view

I find it tricky to be honest
Afraid of what people might say
Gotta tell them what they wanna hear
But I just get in the way

Sh-sh-sh-sh, shy away is all I wanna do
Gotta find a different way to get through

If I didn't wanna be happy so desperately
Things would be easier for me
If I didn't wanna be happy so bad
Then I wouldn't be so sad

I'm fed up with getting older
I think I need some kind of escape
Sometimes I feel like I'm a monster
Sometimes I feel like I can't relate

Run, run, run, run, run away is all I ever do
Now I've got nothing left to hold onto

If I didn't wanna be happy so desperately
Things would be easier for me
If I didn't wanna be happy so bad
Then I wouldn't be so sad
