Lyrics
All I need is a walking cane
To guide me on my way
All I need is a walking cane
To guide me on my way
A hat to push away the rain
That would be okay
Starting over to begin
I'm standing here too strong
I never thought I could ever see it all
I stand too tall
But I shrink away
I never thought I could feel as good
As the way I feel today
So I'll run away
'Cause things aren't quite going my way
So I'll run away
'Cause things aren't quite going my way
Run away from yesterday
Tomorrow we'll be free
I slipped today, but that's okay
I need a new routine
Those who live and those who die
Shining like the sun
All trying to peak over the wall
I stand too tall
But I shrink away
I never thought I could feel as good
As the way I feel today
So I'll run away
'Cause things aren't quite going my way
So I'll run away
'Cause things aren't quite going my way
And when I turned on MTV
I saw just what I wanted to be
But that was yesterday
And things aren't quite going my way
(Woah oh oh)
No things aren't quite going my way
(Woah oh oh oh woah)
No things aren't quite going my way
No things aren't quite going my way
No things aren't quite going my way
(Way, yeah)
(Away, yeah)
(Away, yeah)
(Away)
No things aren't quite going my way
