Lyrics
My life's on overload again,
I can't control a single thing
And I'm stuck here in the middle,
bubble-wrapped in everyday, everyday
There's something inside me telling me something's wrong ? Getaway
And leave it behind me, it's time to be moving on ?
Getaway
How can I stay? Is it too late?
Getaway
I wish I knew what happens next,
cos I think my soul could use some rest
And I'm looking in the mirror,
disappearing everyday, everyday
There's something inside me telling me something's wrong ? Getaway
And leave it behind me, it's time to be moving on ?
Getaway
How can I stay? Is it too late?
Getaway
Some things they take too long,
and I can't wait here anymore just holding on
Getaway, Getaway
And I'm looking in the mirror, disappearing everyday, everyday
There's something inside me telling me something's wrong ? Getaway
And leave it behind me, it's time to be moving on ?
Getaway
How can I stay? Am I too late?
Getaway
