Lyrics
Out of Here
She is a woman who believes her own lies
about herself
She is just fine she says, feigning affection,
feigning health
But she has the same dream
when, at last, she sleeps
She's trapped inside of a small box
and she screams
Somebody help me get out of here
(I'm running out of air)
Is anyone there, get me out of here
(I'm tired and I am scared)
Whatever it takes, I will find a way out of here.
She is a woman who's given too much
of herself away
She's lost insider her list
of all the good she will do today
But she has the same dream
when, at last, she sleeps
She's trapped inside of a small box
and she screams
Somebody help me get out of here
(I'm running out of air)
Is anyone there, get me out of here
(I'm tired and I am scared)
Whatever it takes, I will find a way out of here
Sometimes in her waking
she remembers that dream
Sometimes in her waking
she has to stifle that scream
What if she's not strong enough
What if she is
She is a woman who squeezed her eyes shut
to keep out the light
She doesn't want to see
Doesn't want anything to interfere with her life
But she has the same dream
when, at last, she sleeps
She's trapped inside of a small box
and she screams
Somebody help me get out of here
(I'm running out of air)
Is anyone there, get me out of here
(I'm tired and I am scared)
Whatever it takes, I will find a way out of here
