lyrics

Straight hear, jack of trades in black
need my way out

Can't perceive life to be risk free
need a game out

I need to breathe need my functions clean
need a big shout

I still believe air is what I need
feel alive now

But what's going on

I never got away
Kept on going
but the picture stayed the same

I really missed the day
and now all of life
is falling in decay

I never got away
now I'm chasing every shadow
like a stray

I thought I got away

I never got away

But all that I can feel is good vibrations

Pumping heart, ace of spades in hand
it's my way out

I can see what is life about
no mistake now

I had to breathe had my functions clean
till I screamed loud

I really breathe fill my lungs and please
every cell now

so what's going on

I never got away
Kept on going
but the picture stayed the same

I really missed the day
and now all of life
is falling in decay

I never got away
now I'm chasing every shadow
like a stray

I thought I got away

I never got away

But all that I can feel is good vibrations

I never got away
Kept on going
but the picture stayed the same
there is no getaway

I never got away
Kept on going
but the picture stayed the same
it looks like time to stay

I never got away
Kept on going
but the picture stayed the same
I'll never get away

I never got away
Kept on going
but the picture stayed the same
Please make it go away
