what happened to the great escape we've ended up on the merry go round now all we have are shadows on the wall we could've had it all when did life get in the way striking matches in the rain now there's only me and you living on this death end avenue why don't we get away out of this town shake all those yesterdays they're dragging us down there's nothing left around here for you and I All the signs tell me to get away We should just get away What happened to the love we made We used to give it all When did life get in the way Throwing water on the flames Now there's only me and you Living on this death end avenue So why don't we get away Out of this town Shake all those yesterdays They're dragging us down There's nothing left around here for you and I All the signs tell me to get away We should just get away Why don't we get away Out of this town Shake all those yesterdays They're dragging us down There's nothing left around here for you and I So why don't we get away Out of this town There's nothing left around here for you and I All the signs tell me to get away We should just get away
