  • Gravity don't mean too much to me
    I'm who I've got to be
    These pigs are after me, after you

    Run away like it was yesterday
    And we could run away
    If we could run away
    Run away from here

    I gotta bulletproof heart
    You gotta hollow point smile
    We had our run away scarves
    Got a photograph dream on the getaway mile

    Let's blow a hole in this town
    And do our talking with the laser beam
    Coming out of this place
    In a bullet's embrace
    Then we'll do it again

    How can they say, Jenny could you come back home?
    'Cause everybody knows you don't
    Ever wanna come back
    Let me be the one to save you

    Gravity don't mean too much to me
    I'm who I've got to be
    These pigs are after me, after you

    Run away like it was yesterday
    When we could run away
    When we could run away, run away from here

    I'm shooting out of this room
    Because I sure don't like the company
    You stop your preaching right there
    'Cause I really don't care
    And I'll do it again

    So get me outta my head
    'Cause it's getting quite cramped, you know
    Coming ready or not
    When the motor gets hot
    We can do it again

    The papers say, Johnny won't you come back home?
    'Cause everybody knows you don't wanna give yourself up
    Tell the truth and God will save you

    Gravity don't mean too much to me
    I'm who I've got to be
    These pigs are after me, after you

    Run away like it was yesterday
    And we could run away,
    And we could run away, run away from here

    And though I know how much you hate this
    Are you gonna be the one to save us
    From the black and hopeless feeling
    Will you meet 'em when the end comes reeling?

    Hold your heart into this darkness
    Will it ever be the light to shine you out
    Or fail and leave you stranded
    Or are you gonna be the one left standing?
    You're gonna be the one left standing
    You're gonna be the one left standing

    Gravity don't mean too much to me
    Is this our destiny?
    This world is after me, after you

    Run away like it was yesterday
    And we could run away, run away, run away
    Run away from here
    Yeah, away from here
    Away from here Writer/s: Bob Bryar, Frank Iero, Gerard Way, Michael Way, Ray Toro
