FOUND

(Verse One)
I’m sorry that I didn’t wake you
It wasn’t worth the fight
I packed my things, I stole your six string
And I left in the night

I’m sick of smelling cigarettes
And tasting last night’s beer
I woke up in your bed and thought
“I gotta get out of here”

My sleeping bag and battered suitcase
In my cadillac
Keep your key. Don’t wait for me
I won’t be coming back

(Chorus)
I’m running away
But I can’t escape the whirlwind
Tearing up my dreams
Leaving them broken on the ground
I don’t know where I’m going
I get lost in the crowd
When that cold wind stops blowing
I’ll know I’ve finally found home

(Verse Two)
I remember watching old home movies
Back when I was small
Flickering our memories
On a faded old wall

I looked around that little room
Full of relatives
And even then, I kept thinking
“there must be more than this”

So soon as I turned seventeen
I packed my stuff and went
Moving on to meet my destiny
Now I’m doing it again

(Repeat Chorus)

(Bridge)
Every move I hope is one step closer
To where I wanna be
And to everyone I leave
It really isn’t you, it’s me
There’s a silent storm
That’s brewing in my coffee
There’s not anyone or anything
That’s gonna stop me

(Repeat Chorus)

I’m running away…running away
When that cold wind stops blowing
I’ll know I’ve finally found home
