An itch to be anywhere but here

 An itch to be anywhere but here 

Running but not quite sure from what 

Sad that the ones who are supposed to care have disappointed again

Felt disposable because you were never around 

All I wanted was for you to be around 


I’ve got an itch to be anywhere but here 

Spread my wings and soar far away from this place 

Feeling ready to take on this world 

Leaving history behind  


I turn the pages to rewrite my story 

I close the book on the pain from my past 

Headstrong that I can face another day 

Rewriting my future to fill the hole inside of me  


I’ve got an itch to be anywhere but here 

Spread my wings and soar far away from this place 

Feeling ready to take on this world 

Leaving history behind  


I have never been alone even though I’ve felt it in my veins 

I have never been left in the darkest places without you coming after me 

I’ve always been running and you’ve always been right behind chasing me 

Letting me find out who I am without letting me fall


I’ve got an itch to be anywhere but here 

Spread my wings and soar far away from this place 

Feeling ready to take on this world 

Leaving history behind 


My deepest regret is not sticking around 

Filling this void with the things of the world 

There is so much beauty here 

Sometimes I forget to really look 


I’ve got an itch to be anywhere but here 

Spread my wings and soar far away from this place 

Feeling ready to take on this world 

Leaving history behind 


In the end I’ll keep running because it is what I do best 

Spiraling out of control when my emotions aren’t checked 

I just keep running because there will never be an escape 

I keep going because I’m trying to get away from this place 


I’ve got an itch to be anywhere but here 

Spread my wings and soar far away from this place 

Feeling ready to take on this world 

I’ll leave my history behind me 


The only thing I’m running away from is me 

The only thing I’m running away from is me 

The only thing I’m running away from is me 

And it’s not your job to save me from myself
