Gotta Get Away

I’ve been working real hard, but I’m getting no-where
I keep making plans, wanting these things
Stare at these walls, and swear they’re closing in
Tired of being told, that there’s no way to win
Gotta get away
They say I’m stuck in this town, if I like it or not
I can’t get what I need, so I gotta take what I’ve got
Well, that would be fine, if I was somebody else
I can think for myself
cause I know what I want, and I want it now
Hanging on here’s just holding me down
I got the feeling like I’m burried alive
Try to understand, I can’t stay
Gotta get away
Stop pushing on me, cause you’re pushing too hard
Don’t give me an inch, when I need a yard
I tried to explain it time and again
Hell, I talk till I’m blue, but you don’t understand
Cause I know what I want, and I want it now
Hanging on here’s just holding me down
I got the feeling like I’m burried alive
Try to understand, I can’t stay
Gotta get away
I look at myself, and I see all that I’ve lost in this fight
And how many times do you think that I tossed and turned in the night?
All the while I’m dreaming to be free, when I cross that borderline
There’ll be a world out there that’s waiting for me
Gotta get away
