Anywhere but here

We´ve been alright up until now,
But the air that we breathe is about to run out.
We´ve rehearsed our 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 lanes 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.
These faces all rush 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,
But we grow tall and wide.
We´ll never be cut down.
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)
I´m so tired and turned around and scared.
I´m lying in empty beds again.
I´ll wait for you to come
To your senses, barbed-wire fences
Won´t keep me from breaking through.
I swear I will to 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.
But the air that we breathe is about to run out.
We´ve rehearsed our 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 lanes 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.
