[Verse 1]
You want me to be the daddy
We're both just kids
No, known mortality
Wanna move us all into the valley
Grow up quick
And start a family

[Bridge]
But every night since we let it slip
I keep on running, keep on running
Out of the suburbs and off of the grid
I keep on running, keep on running
Till no one can find me

[Pre Chorus]
We ain't ready
We ain't ready to start a home
We ain't ready
Let me call this what you won't

[Chorus]
It was one late night
Our breath was laced with whiskey fire
Took that chance and
Then we tripped the wire
But it ain't right
We're way too young to feel so tired
Took that chance
Not knowing that the cost was higher

[Verse 2]
I see you running up my doorstep
Raising hell
But my folks don't know yet
We can't just move into the basement
Without paying rent
Not on this paycheck

[Bridge]
Every night since we let it slip
I keep on running, keep on running
Out of the suburbs and off of the grid
I keep on running, keep on running
Till no one can find me

[Pre Chorus]
But we ain't ready
We ain't ready to start a home
No, we ain't ready
Let me call this what you won't
[Chorus]
It was one late night
Our breath was laced with whiskey fire
Took that chance
And then we tripped the wire
But it ain't right
We're way too young to feel so tired
Took that chance
Not knowing that the cost was higher

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
I'm more scared every day
For what comes next
And what people might say
But this marks the first day
Of the end of our lives
But it won't change the way
I feel about you
I wanna run away without you

[Outro]
All along, thought I was good natured
And stayed but now I know
I'm just a coward, baby
I ain't ready
I ain't ready to start a home
No, I ain't ready
To raise one of my own
