Running away from home

Running away from home,
To start a new life
Where I can be free.
Don’t contact me, dad,
I’m sick of it all
And for the ninety ninth time,
I’m not suicidal!

Running away form home,
I know it’s a risk.
I’ve no money,
No job,
Nothing.
In search of better prospects,
A new beginning.

Running away from home,
Escaping my parents,
Escaping my past –
The skeletons in my closet
I’d rather not discuss.
It’s only a dream,
But one I so wish could happen.

Running away form home,
So much hope
As freedom beckons.
Don’t follow me, dad,
I need a bit of space
And I appreciate your concern,
But I’m really not suicidal!
