As I stir from slumber's grasp
In my tattered bed, I gasp
At the dawn of a fresh day's light
These chains, relentless and tight
Bind me to this desolate town
Its silent streets, its faded crown
Yet within, a fire yearns to ignite
Beyond these city walls, a world awaits
Why do they remain blind to life's grand debates?
Lost in their games, they miss the cosmic sway
But there's more to me-I'll get away
No more deceit, no more shadows' play
I won't hide-I'll face the sun's array
My heart, once shelved, now craves to soar
I refuse confinement-I'll explore
Moments crumble, wings unfurl
In chaos, I'll find my own swirl
Goodbyes may come, yet I'll dance the fray
For we all must get away
Within, truth surges-a tidal force
Too long have I whispered, stayed off course
I won't be another face lost in the crowd
My voice matters-I'll speak clear and loud.
Why should they heed my words, you ask
I'm no nobody; I wear no mask
This life won't be lived in shades of gray
I'll get free-I won't stay
No more deceit, no more shadows' play
I won't hide-I'll face the sun's array
My heart, once shelved, now craves to soar
I refuse confinement-I'll explore
Moments crumble, wings unfurl
In chaos, I'll find my own swirl
Goodbyes may come, yet I'll dance the fray
For we all must get away
In dreams, I glimpse my escape route
How much longer must I wrestle doubt?
My skin tingles-the walls close in
Burned-out buildings, echoes of sin
No more deceit, no more shadows' play
I won't hide-I'll face the sun's array
My heart, once shelved, now craves to soar
I refuse confinement-I'll explore
Moments crumble, wings unfurl
In chaos, I'll find my own swirl
Goodbyes may come, yet I'll dance the fray
For we all must get away
In dreams, I glimpse my escape route
How much longer must I wrestle doubt?
My skin tingles-the walls close in
Burned-out buildings, echoes of sin
No more deceit, no more shadows' play
I won't hide-I'll face the sun's array
My heart, once shelved, now craves to soar
I refuse confinement-I'll explore
Moments crumble, wings unfurl
In chaos, I'll find my own swirl
Goodbyes may come, yet I'll dance the fray
For we all must get away
Shaking off dust, I defy the dusk
Faith or not, I'll rise, I'll thrust
Into the unknown, where courage holds sway
Get away, get away
Get away, get away
Get away, get away
