Get me out
Out of this town
Burn it down down to the ground
All I’ve loved is lost
I need an escape
Save me, save me now

You let me down
Over and over
I was fooled
By your mask
Of beautiful colors and loving words
Of warm embraces and heart filled lies
Days and nights I thought of, dreamed of, hoped for
You

A wave of frustration
An ocean of sounds
Meaningless words spoken with a smile
My hurt, amplified,
By the speakers held deep inside
What we never were
We will never be

Get me out
Out of this town
Burn it down down to the ground
All I’ve loved is lost
I need an escape
Save me, save me now

Seeing you move on
Hits me hard
All the time I wasted, flushed down the drain
To see you move to her
When you could so easily have had me
My days are dark, my nights are empty
You’ve made me my own worst enemy

Insecurities echo in my mind
Tears spill down my solemn face
And regret, it fills me, fills me so
Immensely that I cant let go
I couldn’t see, what no one else saw
I couldn't imagine you with any flaw
And there you were, unveiled to me
The darkest figure I’d ever seen

Get me out
Out of this town
Burn it down down to the ground
All I’ve loved is lost
I need an escape
Save me, save me now

You make me think
Horrible thoughts
Of running and hiding
And leaving it all behind
Everything I’ve once loved
Doesn't compare to this feeling, of running
As fast as I can, no regrets, only forgetting

Forgetting all the fake you brought
Your lies and cruelty
All the things you said
That I so easily believed
With all my heart

Leave, leave now, because I don't want to see you anymore
I can’t take one more moment, looking into those eyes
Hearing you voice, your laugh
Watching you walk away
It’s too much
I’m done

Get me out
Out of this town
Burn it down down to the ground
All I’ve loved is lost
I need an escape
Save me, save me now

I’m never looking back
At what I thought you meant to me
I’m never looking back, at this town of empty dreams
Of false hope and chances lost
Time wasted, love forgotten
You, mean nothing anymore, so I’m running, far away

Get me out
Out of this town
Burn it down down to the ground
All I’ve loved is lost
I need an escape
Save me, save me now

Get me out
Out of this town
Burn it down down to the ground
All I’ve loved is lost
I need an escape
Save me, save me
Save me, save me
Save me, save me... Now.
