I got to get away
I got to go and leave today
I cannot stick around
I cannot stand this safe and sound

Tonight everything's too slow to me
Can't you see I want to go now
Cause everything's too slow in here

I got to get away
I cannot stay another day
My life fits in a bag
This here and now is such a drag

And when I'm gone
And when I'm gone you might not know me anymore
But that's okay
That's okay, I'd rather fly than hide away

I got to get away
And lose myself along the way
I'll reach another state
And I will eat what's on my plate

Why am I still wasting my time?
