Midnight Sky Lyrics
[Intro]
La, la, la-la, la
[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 (Uh)
Lotta years went by with my hands tied up in your ropes (Your ropes)
Forever and ever, no more (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 (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 (Loved by you)
[Post-Chorus]
La, la, la-la, la
[Verse 2]
She got her hair pulled back 'cause the sweat's drippin' off of her face (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 (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 (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 (By you)
[Bridge]
Oh
I don't hide blurry eyes like you
Like you
[Chorus]
I was born to run, I don't belong to anyone, oh no
I don't need to be loved by you (By you)
Fire in my lungs, can't bite the devil on my tongue, you know
I don't need to be loved by you
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 (Yeah)
[Outro]
La, la, la-la, la
La, la
You know it's true, you know it's true
Loved by you
La, la, la-la, la
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 (Uh)
Lotta years went by with my hands tied up in your ropes (Your ropes)
Forever and ever, no more (No more)
The midnight sky is the road I'm takin'
Head high up in the clouds (Oh, oh)
I was born to run, I don't belong to anyone, oh no
I don't need to be loved by you (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 (Loved by you)
La, la, la-la, la
She got her hair pulled back 'cause the sweat's drippin' off of her face (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 (No more)
The midnight sky is the road I'm takin'
Head high up in the clouds (Oh, oh)
I was born to run, I don't belong to anyone, oh no
I don't need to be loved by you (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 (By you)
Oh
I don't hide blurry eyes like you
Like you
I was born to run, I don't belong to anyone, oh no
I don't need to be loved by you (By you)
Fire in my lungs, can't bite the devil on my tongue, you know
I don't need to be loved by you
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 (Yeah)
La, la, la-la, la
La, la
You know it's true, you know it's true
Loved by you

In this song Miley Cyrus realized that she no longer needed the guy and finally telling him where to get off I was born to run is a sign that she has had enough of the relationship and so she lets go to find something new...See his hands around my waist thought U'll never be replaced she tells him that it's now over I'm able to walk away from it all,she now sees a greater extent of her potential and that she has so much life without the guy... This lyrics are really good I really love this song
I think this song is about Cyrus discovering her sexuality with “see my lips on her mouth , everybody’s talking now” - nobody saw this coming… this is just my interpretation and I agree with @Amedia that the song is about Cyrus running from a relationship.
