what happened to the great escape
we've ended up on the merry go round
now all we have are shadows on the wall
we could've had it all

when did life get in the way
striking matches in the rain
now there's only me and you
living on this death end avenue

why don't we get away
out of this town
shake all those yesterdays
they're dragging us down
there's nothing left around here for you and I
All the signs tell me to get away
We should just get away

What happened to the love we made
We used to give it all
When did life get in the way
Throwing water on the flames
Now there's only me and you
Living on this death end avenue

So why don't we get away
Out of this town
Shake all those yesterdays
They're dragging us down
There's nothing left around here for you and I

All the signs tell me to get away
We should just get away
Why don't we get away
Out of this town
Shake all those yesterdays
They're dragging us down
There's nothing left around here for you and I
So why don't we get away

Out of this town
There's nothing left around here for you and I
All the signs tell me to get away
We should just get away
