Get Out While You CanI've been looking all night, watching them empty hoursInvisible to this crowd, always double vision I've been losing my mind, listening to broken speech Stacking up broken seats, it's a lonely picture And I hear your voice as it echoes 'round my head Always that same thing that you said Get out, get out, while you still can Don't let the night slip through your hands The world is wide from where you stand So get out, get out while you still can ooh ooh As I'm sweeping up glass, I see the exit lights so green These people falling into the streets Something comes together I've been here too long and if I stay, they'll tie me down I know this chance won't hang around, so I'm gone forever And I hear your voice as it echoes 'round my head Always that same thing that you said So get out, get out, while you still can Don't let the night slip through your hands The world is wide from where you stand So get out, get out while you still can ooh ooh Packing up my suitcase, racing down forgotten streets Making my tracks along the cracks in the concrete Seeing those headlights shining down upon my feet You'll find me, you'll find me on the run For all the bleeding hearts pushing 'round the stubborn carts I've seen the greener grass, I've seen the faster cars And I don't need your happy hours I don't need your lonely bars I'm projected like a bullet from a gun So take your final look at me, maybe even take my hand Steady on the staircase, come and chase the master plan Long way to get away, play it like a grand slam This is no encore, we have only just begun So get out, get out, while you still can Don't let the night slip through your hands The world is wide from where you stand So get out, get out while you still can ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh ooh... |
