The Great Escape- Boys Like Girls

51 1 3
                                    

Paper bags and plastic hearts 

All are belongings in a shopping cart 

It's goodbye 

But we got one more night 

Let's get drunk and ride around 

And make peace with an empty town 

We can make it right 


Throw it away 

Forget yesterday

We'll make the great escape 

We won't hear a word they say 

They don't know us anyway


Watch it burn

Let it die

Cause we are finally free tonight


Tonight will change our lives 

It's so good to be by your side 

We'll cry

We won't give up the fight 

We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs 

And they'll think it's just cause we're young 

And we'll feel so alive 


Throw it away 

Forget yesterday

We'll make the great escape 

Won't hear a word they say

They don't know us anyway


Watch it burn

Let it die 

Cause we are finally free tonight 


All of the wasted time 

The hours that were left behind 

The answers that we'll never find 

They don't mean a thing tonight


Throw it away 

Forget yesterday 

We'll make the great escape 

Won't hear a word they say 

They don't know us anyway


Throw it away 

Forget yesterday

We'll make the great escape 

Won't hear a word they say 

They don't know us anyway 


Throw it away

Forget yesterday

We'll make the great escape 

Won't hear a word they say 

They don't know us anyway


Watch it burn

Let it die 

Cause we are finally free tonight
