about

pressure to marry, to grow up, wanting to run away from it all...

lyrics

I left town in another guise
Some say to get away from you
The tricks that you tried were no surprise
There's none I think you wouldn't do

Well it's a long way down
And I know that you're gonna fall
A long way down from here

Your mum and dad will be so annoyed
They've booked our day to be wed
I couldn't stand them anyway
I'd much so rather see them dead

Well it's a long way down
I know that you're gonna fall
A long way down from here

I booked myself on a foreign train
Six pack of beer in my hand
I don't know where I'm going to
As long as it's another land

Well it's a long way down
I know that you're gonna fall
A long way down from here

Now that I'm gone I sure miss that place
I miss it like a hole in the head
I'm lying here in a sunny haze
I only miss you in bed

Well it's a long way down
I know that you're gonna fall
A long way down from here...
