EN
The back porch is softer than my bed 'Cause it hasn’t seen the times I’ve cried I keep ‘em all there filed away in my head I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again On bad days it’s like a poison, it destroys and Stains every place I’ve ever called my home And I just wanna run away I wanna run toward something new I wanna run away I wanna run, I wanna run, I wanna run But how do I know when I'm done? How do I know, how do I know How do I know when to run Wherever I go, I always know All that will follow, but give me a chance To simply set today apart from tomorrow Will I ever stop stopping to wonder If I savor lightning far too quick Burn through what’s bright Before I’ve even heard the thunder And I just wanna run away I wanna run toward something new I wanna run away I wanna run, I wanna run, I wanna run But how do I know when I'm done How do I know How do I know, how do I know when to run I bought a cake, it’s no one’s birthday And now my mouth is blue I feel the sugar coursing through I didn’t know what else to do But I’ll trade coffee for water It’ll last about a week I’ll rinse two new tattoos For fifteen minutes at the kitchen sink And I will find a way To make it back to where I’ve been before And I will try today To open 'stead of closing every door And I will find a way To tell myself that I’ve been there before And I will try today To open 'stead of closing every door
