run away with me tonight.

music: runaway with me tonight - the forecast

lets get out of this world. leave all responsibility, and go to a place nobody knows. lets find a world where consequences dont follow every decision. we could float around in a world of ideals. cause ignorance is definitely bliss. 

but no.

reality will always somehow find a way to suck us back in. more often than not, leaving us in a place thats worse than before. we are forced to assume responsibility. forced to face what we've always been running from, only its ten times worse.  

but we run again. we keep running. everything gets worse and worse. life spirals out of control. nothing makes sense anymore. you realize we need help. you hook onto someone in hope that maybe, just maybe there's still hope. things go well. you're starting to move forward. things start to make sense again. you feel purpose. you're having trouble keeping up, but at least your moving. 

then suddenly, you're alone again. you're devastated. everything you hoped for falls apart. you lose all sense of being. now you're worse than ever before. the happier you were, the harder  you fall. now its almost like you've crashed to the floor. 

then you try. you try hard to fix it. cause when you're that bad, you are forced to take responsibility. because if not, then thats the end. so you pretend nothings wrong and carry on with what everyone else is doing. school is crazy. friends come arnd to help. and you realise something big.

all the while you've wanted to be grown up, handle thing on your own. but you screwed it up. you did it wrongly. you now know what it means to be grown up. to take responsibility.

you now actually want to. so now, you've just got to try to. only time will tell.
