[Verse 1]
Yeah, it's been a long night and the mirror's telling me to go home
But it's been a long time since I felt this good on my own
Lotta years went by with my hands tied up in your ropes
Forever and ever

[Pre-Chorus]
The midnight sky is the road I'm takin'
Head high up in the clouds

[Chorus]
I was born to run, I don't belong to anyone, oh no
I don't need to be loved by you
Fire in my lungs, can't bite the devil on my tongue, oh no
I don't need to be loved by you
See my lips on her mouth, everybody's talkin' now, baby
Ooh, you know it's true (Yeah, yeah)
That I was born to run, I don't belong to anyone, oh no
I don't need to be loved by you

[Verse 2]
She got her hair pulled back 'cause the sweat's drippin' off of her face
Said, "It ain't so bad if I wanna make a couple mistakes"
You should know right now that I never stay put in one place
Forever and ever, no more
[Pre-Chorus]
The midnight sky is the road I'm takin'
Head high up in the clouds (Oh, oh)

[Chorus]
I was born to run, I don't belong to anyone, oh no
I don't need to be loved by you
Fire in my lungs, can't bite the devil on my tongue, oh no
I don't need to be loved by you
See my lips on her mouth, everybody's talkin' now, baby
Ooh, you know it's true (Yeah)
That I was born to run, I don't belong to anyone, oh no
I don't need to be loved by you

[Bridge]
I don't hide blurry eyes like you
Like you

[Chorus]
I was born to run, I don't belong to anyone, oh no
Fire in my lungs, can't bite the devil on my tongue, you know
See his hands 'round my waist, thought you'd never be replaced, baby
Ooh, you know it's true (Yeah)
That I was born to run, I don't belong to anyone, oh no
I don't need to be loved by you
