I've been beaten, I've been abused
I've been cheated and I've been used
They said that I'm no good
Heart stone cold, black and blue
Reminder of the shit they put me through
Oh, it's getting' old
Time to show myself the door
There's no pretending anymore
It's over
Where I'm goin', I don't know
Somewhere down this dusty road
North on 441
Past the rollin' cattle fields, the trailer parks and rusted cotton mills
Lord, get me outta' here
I've made up my mind
I'm not givin' in this time
It's over
I'M A HEARTBREAK RUNAWAY
ON A FAST RIDE TOWARD THE INTERSTATE
I'M LEAVIN' THIS PLACE WITHOUT A MINUTE TO WASTE
NO LOOKIN' OVER MY SHOULDER
OH IT'S OVER
Been in prison locked in chains, Bible beat into my brain
They said you gotta' trust and obey
But I've busted loose, I'm on the run, screamin' at the top of my lungs
Thank God I'm free at last
Feel like I've been reborn
There's no pretending anymore
Bridge
My Dad's been drinkin' beers, every night for twenty years
And Mama just sits there on the couch, poppin' pills to drown her tears.
And they keep doggin' me, you're not worth a damn and your just gonna' be
Another failure and a jailbird like everyone in the family
So I hang out in a parkin' lot, get stoned with my two friends
‘Cause there the ones who understand the situation that I'm in
They feel my pain and man I'm gonna miss ‘em when I'm gone
But I'm movin' on, ‘cause if I don't I'll be dead by twenty-one
I'll shoot myself in the head before I wind up like my dad,
Workin' a job I hate and takin' out my anger on a kid
I can hear my Mama cryin', as I cross that county line
‘Cause she knows I'm not comin' back
I'm leavin' all this shit behind.
I told her I'm a soldier, I'm wiser and I'm older
I got my education now I'm outta' here
It's over
I'M A HEARTBREAK RUNAWAY
ON A FAST RIDE TOWARD THE INTERSTATE
I'M LEAVIN' THIS PLACE WITHOUT A MINUTE TO WASTE
NO LOOKIN' OVER MY SHOULDER
OH IT'S OVER
