  • I've thought about it for a while
    And I've thought about the many miles
    But I think it's time that I've gone away
    The feelings that you have for me
    Have gone away it's plain to see
    And it looks to me that your pulling away

    I'm gonna pick it up
    I'm gonna pick it up today
    I'm bound pack it up
    I'm bound pack it up and go away

    I've found it hard to say to you
    That this is what I have to do
    But there is no way that I'm gonna stay
    There are so many things you need to know
    And I want to tell you before I go
    But it's hard to think of just what to say

    I'm gonna pick it up
    I'm gonna pick it up today
    I'm bound pack it up
    I'm bound pack it up and go away

    I'm sorry to leave you all alone
    You're sitting silent by the phone
    But we'd always known there would come a day
    The bus is warm and softly lit
    And a hundred people ride in it
    I guess I'm just another runaway

    I'm gonna pick it up
    I'm gonna pick it up today
    I'm bound pack it up
    I'm bound pack it up and go away Writer/s: JACK WHITE
