Running For Me
Inspired by a class assignment. Can anyone write music to match lyrics? I have a couple.

Packed up my suitcase, Daddy,
Picked up my room.
Wrote out a note for Mommy,
I’ll try to come back soon.
Left my door open, Brother,
Come take what’s yours.
This little sister’s leavin’,
on a self-guided tour.

‘Cause I need to breathe,
I need to cry.
I need to feel,
I need to fly.
I’m runnin’ out of
Air to breathe
I’m leavin now
You can’t
Stop
Me

Picked up my suitcase, Daddy,
Packed up my car.
Thought about that note for Mommy,
I know I gotta run far.
I looked back at that house there, Brother,
Knew I’d miss you so.
But this little sister’s got
So many places to go.

Cause I need to breathe,
I need to cry.
I need to feel,
I need to fly.
I’m runnin’ out of
Room at home,
I’m leaving now
Though I’ll miss
You
So

Startin’ up my car now, Daddy,
Buckle myself in.
I promise I’ll stay safe, Mommy,
You know I’m in it to win.
I back out the driveway, Brother,
And head down the street.
This little sister’s leavin’
I’m finally findin’ my feet.

‘Cause I need to breathe,
I need to cry.
I need to feel,
I need to fly.
I’m runnin’ out for
Bein’ me
I’m leaving now
I’m gone
I’m
Free

Now I know how to breathe
And I know how to cry
I’ve learned to feel
I love to fly
I ran out once for
Being me
I’m gone now, Daddy
I’m free
I’m me.
