    Familiar story about wanting to leave a small town, the small mindedness of the town, breaking the constraints.
    Credits: Words and Music by Andrew G. Scott

    Story Behind the Song
    Standing on my balcony one night, bored, frustrated looking into the sky. I look down across the way and see rows and rows of homes, tightly built into an older subdivision. It' quiet and clear. The only thing that stands out is the glow of televisions from all the homes across the way. I started getting the overwhelming thought, wow, the American dream. Work, come home, watch TV, go to bed. There has to be something better for us. Somewhere.

    Lyrics
    I'm staring out my window
    I see pictures on the TV
    Simple minds with simple lives
    I don't want to let that be me

    If you're only gonna to fade away
    Then it's time to learn to let go
    If you're only going to fade away
    Don't stop to think what might have been
    Some things we're never gonna know
    But now I know it's time to go

    CHORUS:
    Run away don't turn around
    Run away let's just go
    Run away to a different town
    No one will know who we are
    Or where we might have come from
    If we run

    Life's just a moving picture
    The scenery changes the show
    It's time to stop pretending
    It's time for loss of control
