Escape

[Verse 1]
I needed the money, so I got a day job
Life as a chain gang, I'm workin' too hard
I can see freedom, but I'm stuck on the inside
Monday through Friday I'm playin' this nine-to-five

[Chorus]
You can free yourself, you can overcome pain
You can save yourself from the pouring rain

[Post-Chorus]
I can't wait!
'Til I'm makin' my escape

[Verse 2]
Stuck in these four walls, feelin' like a prisoner
Got up the courage, I try for a new start
I get away, I'm headin' for the good times
Life is a shot when there's happiness on the line

[Chorus]
You can free yourself, you can overcome pain
You can save yourself, get on the night train

[Post-Chorus]
I can't wait!
'Til I'm makin' my escape
I can't wait!
I can't wait!
I can't wait!

[Verse 3]
Stuck in these four walls, feelin' like a prisoner
I got up the courage, I try for a new start

[Chorus]
(You got to be right!)
You can free yourself, you can overcome pain
(You've got to make your escape)
You can save yourself, get on the night train
(You've got to make your escape)
I can't wait! (La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
'Til I'm makin' my escape

[Outro]
You can free yourself, you can overcome pain
(You've got to make your escape)
You can save yourself, get on the night train
(You've got to make)
