The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Hold on, who's running out
Who's leaving soon?
Pack my bags for
Quarter to four
I'll be waiting outside my door
Break out, and we
Start it up and
We make our escape now
(With you)
We'll forget our lives
Nothing faked no goodbye's now
(With you)
Start it up
Make me happy or let it fade
And we're giving up
But I'll die if I stay here
(With you)
Far gone, sobbing for days
Craving a change
Carve my name in a bathroom stall
Is this what you've been living for?
Harmful, who's laughing now?
Who's fooling who?
Right as rain I can never go home
Is this what you all take me for?
Are you ready
Reckless as we
Start it up and
We make our escape now
(With you)
We'll forget our lives
Nothing faked no goodbye's now
(With you)
Start it up
Make me happy or let it fade
Right or wrong
Don't go home
Can't go home
Don't go home
So we...
Start it up and
We make our escape now
(With you)
We'll forget our lives
Nothing faked no goodbye's now
(With you)
So start it up
Leave me happy or let it fade
And no holding back
Just as long as I'm always
(With you)
Let's go
