Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Why don't we, why don't we, why don't we, why don't we

Why don't we, why don't we, why don't we, why don't we

Why don't we, why don't we, why don't we, why don't we

Why don't we, why don't we, why don't we

[Verse 2]

Take me away

Release me from the cage

Free me from the pain

(Why don't we, why don't we, why don't we, why don't we)

And let me feel no shame

(Why don't we, why don't we, why don't we, let's go)

[Verse 3]

The stars spin circles around the bad times

You splashed your water on my fire sign

The fortune teller told us to unwind

Come on, runaway

[Verse 4]

Runaway

[Verse 6]

Why don't we, why don't we, why don't we, why don't we

Why don't we, why don't we, why don't we, why don't we

Why don't we, why don't we, why don't we, why don't we

Why don't we, why don't we, why don't we, why don't we

[Verse 7]

I felt invisible for a long time

This town will smother what's left of mine

I'm taking chances, come back to life

Come on, runaway

[Verse 8]

Runaway

[Verse 9]

I've been

I've been all

I've been

I've been all

I've been

I've been all around the world dream

[Verse 10]

I've been

I've been all

I've been

I've been all

I've been

I've been all around the world dream

[Verse 11]

Let's go free, yeah

Let's go free, yeah

[Verse 12]

Why don't we, why don't we, why don't we, why don't we

Why don't we, why don't we, why don't we, why don't we (Runaway)

Why don't we, why don't we, why don't we, why don't we

Why don't we, why don't we (Why don't we, let's go)

[Verse 13]

You've been saying that you want to go

I am finally ready to let go

Let's go, let's go, let's go

I am finally ready

[Verse 14]

Take me away

Release me from the cage

Free me from the pain

(Why don't we, why don't we, why don't we, why don't we)

And let me feel no shame

(Why don't we, why don't we, why don't we, let's go)

[Verse 15]

Let's go free, yeah

Let's go free, yeah

Let's go

Free, yeah

Let's go free, yeah

Let's go free, yeah

Let's go free, yeah

Runaway
