Escape Artists
Rise Against
[Intro] x2 [Verse 1] Undercover of the dark night Avoid the clattered street lights And disappear at dawn Camouflage ourselves to get by Hiding here in plain sight Waiting for a sign to come [Pre-Chorus] It’s the lottery of life We all play to just get by But some of us escaped And found a better way a better life [Chorus] The ones that got away now Drifted from the herd Slip through the fingers of your world The ones that got away now Never to return We left your world to build our own [Verse 2] And off the grid we’re building Able but unwilling To bow to this design There is a light there is a way out Safe before we all drown The boundaries have been redefined [Pre-Chorus] We are products of a place But our ties have been erased A wilderness awaits And lost is something we’ve been trying to find [Chorus] The ones that got away now Drifted from the herd Slip through the fingers of your world The ones that got away now Never to return We left your world to build our own [Verse 3] Gave up our place In line to run so far away To break free from This endless race is never won This endless pace we can’t outrun [Interlude] The blade spinning closer We’ll keep our composure We are the ones that got away now Drifting from the herd We are the ones that got away now Never to return [Outro] And from your clutches we’re escaping Yeah from your grip we are breaking free We got away (ones that got away) Yeah! Got away (ones that got away) We got away (ones that got away) Yeah! [Outro]
