set out running

want to get it all behind me, you know everything reminds me, i can't be myself without you, want to crawl down deep inside, the springs inside the mattress, where l cry my dirty secrets, 'cause i just can't shake this feeling, that i'm nothing in your eyes, and if i knew heartbreak was coming, i would've set out running, past the city houses, and the ditches on the highway, read between the seasons, under the bridges in valleys, til the winds out on the prairie, whip the tears from my eyes, want to get it all behind me, you know everything reminds me, i can't be myself without you, want to crawl down deep inside, the springs inside the mattress where i cry my dirty secrets, 'cause i just can't shake this feeling, that i'm nothing in your eyes, and if i knew heartbreak was coming, i would've set out running, across the muddy river, and the smokestacks on the bank, swallow that horizon, hunger beyond hunger, til the cloudy blue pacific, took the air in my lungs, and if i knew heartbreak was coming, i would've set out running, 'cause i just can't shake this feeling, that i'm nothing in your eyes.
