I don't know where I'm going,
   but I can't wait to get there,
   All I know is, I'm just going
   I ran away from home last night, gone forever
   I was running for my life
   And I've heard the words of what I should be
   Live, work, die, I am the orphan of the night
  
   Take me down, I'm coming home, the road to ruins
   Inside the pleasure dome
   Take me down, I'm coming home, arena of pleasures
   Where I belong
  
   I'm in the eye of my rage, where no hurricane dies
   I'm in the eye of my rage, where the hurricane lies
   Oh, a storms in my eyes
   And like the beast that?s in my soul, I'm the restless child
   Ah mama, I'm running for my life
  
   I was sixteen going nowhere,
   will I see seventeen alive
   And I was running from the nightmare
   I stand at the promised land with fire in my eyes
   I'm at the crossroad of my destiny and desire
  
   Oh, God, what will I be
   And my obsession is the gasoline to feed my fire
   Oh it's burning in me
  
   Don't waste the tears on my wasted years
   Mama I'm outta here
