get out while you can

i've been looking all night

watching them empty hours

invisible 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.
