The world is too vast. Too wondrous.
Sometimes too hideous.
I'll add more strike-throughs.
(But it's not about how many places you've been to,
it's about how deeply you've delved.)

More words.

It's been a long week
I've got a slow leak in my left front tire
I'm sick of where I work, my boss is such a jerk
Don't care if I get fired
My back's about to break
No money in the bank
She don't call me anymore
I'm down to my last ring, it's time to sell my things

And pack my bags and never look back
Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks
And make my get away
I put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down
Leave everybody sleepin in this sleepy town tonight
And at the break of day
I'll be a runaway

A hundred miles in
I got a stupid grin on my scruffy face
With every cigarette
I'm burning my regrets
Don't want to leave a trace
And from the rear-view
I've got clear view of who I used to be
A little bit faster now
Don't wanna turn around

It's crazy, I know
To count on this road and give me what I need
But with every state line
Somehow I find
Another part of me

I'm gonna pack my bags and never look back
Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks
And make my get away
I put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down
Leave everybody sleepin in this sleepy town tonight
And at the break of day
I'll be a runaway

Love & Theft "Runaway"
