running away again(thinking of)

by Antwan Fields - Aries

the arguments have intensified to where we are cursing at each other
they've gotten ten times worse
and now the thought is for me to run away
leave a place where i don't want to be
and the smashing pumpkins "imploding voice" is what i hear as i begin to pack to leave this place
everywhere ive gone
is everywhere ive been
im going to leave this house and begin a new life
im down on my luck, im tired of having no fun
im tired of coming home and getting right into an argument
i mean, what did i do for this?
but then i remember
that i was taken in when i had nowhere else to go
and it becomes apparant as i unpack
that i won't run away
not today.
