I’ve been working real hard, but I’m getting no-where I keep making plans, wanting these things Stare at these walls, and swear they’re closing in Tired of being told, that there’s no way to win
Gotta get away
They say I’m stuck in this town, if I like it or not I can’t get what I need, so I gotta take what I’ve got Well, that would be fine, if I was somebody else I can think for myself cause I know what I want, and I want it now Hanging on here’s just holding me down I got the feeling like I’m burried alive Try to understand, I can’t stay
Gotta get away
Stop pushing on me, cause you’re pushing too hard Don’t give me an inch, when I need a yard I tried to explain it time and again Hell, I talk till I’m blue, but you don’t understand Cause I know what I want, and I want it now Hanging on here’s just holding me down I got the feeling like I’m burried alive Try to understand, I can’t stay
Gotta get away
I look at myself, and I see all that I’ve lost in this fight And how many times do you think that I tossed and turned in the night? All the while I’m dreaming to be free, when I cross that borderline There’ll be a world out there that’s waiting for me
