I've been working all night watching them empty out
Invisible to this crowd, always double vision
I've been losing my mind listening to broken speech
Stacking up broken seats, it's a lonely picture
And I hear your voice as it echoes round my head
Always that same thing that you said
Get out, get out, while you still can
Don't let the nights slip through your hands
The world is wide from where you stand
So get out, get out while you still can
As I'm sweeping up glass, I see the exit lights so green
There's people falling into the street
Something comes together
I've been here too long and if I stay, they'll tie me down
I know this chance won't hang around, so I'm gone forever
And I hear your voice as it echoes round my head
Always that same thing that you said
So get out, get out, while you still can
Don't let the nights slip through your hands
The world is wide from where you stand
So get out, get out while you still can
Packing up my suitcase racing down forgotten street
Making my tracks along the cracks in the concrete
Seeing those headlights shining down upon my feet
If you find me you will find me on the run
For all the bleeding hearts pushing round their shopping carts
I have seen the greener grass, I have seen the faster cars
And I don't need your happy hours
I don't need your lonely bars
I'm ejecting like a bullet from a gun
So take your final look at me, maybe even take my hand
Steady on the staircase, come and chase the master plan
The long awaited getaway, play it like a grand slam
This is no encore, we have only just begun
So get out, get out, while you still can
Don't let the nights slip through your hands
The world is wide from where you stand
So get out, get out while you still can ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh (until the end)
