Anywhere But Here
-
Rise Against
-
We've been alright up to now But the air that we breathe is about to run out We've rehearsed out lines clear and loud But the cue never came and the lights They never went down So we're passing the time While time passes us The fast lane's a term never applied to us Without a dime to my name Or a prayer in the world I walk out the door
Destination: anywhere but here Away from you
Now I'm on my way to the other side [on my way] I'll forget everything I left behind [on my way] These empty rooms [on my way] Are still filled with you [on my way]
So I dropped out of my own race A race with no finish line No first or last place I watch these faces all run right past me I turn and walk away Cause we finally know now what our Time here's about we were not meant to be Another face in the crowd We're a forest of lives We grow tall and wide We won't ever be cut down
Now I'm on my way to the other side [on my way] I'll forget everything I left behind [on my way] These empty rooms [on my way] Are still filled with you [on my way]
I'm so tired and turned around and scared And I'm lying in empty beds again I'll wait for you to come To your sense, barbed wire fences Won't keep me from breaking through I swear I will for you
Now I'm on my way to the other side [on my way] I'll forget everything I left behind [on my way] These empty rooms [on my way] Are still filled with you [on my way]
I'm so tired and turned around and scared I'm lying in empty beds again Away from you
