I want out Lyrics

I tried to leave, but the chains are tight

One wrong turn, now I'm back in the fight

The streets call me, but I don't want to go

How do you break from the only life you know

Dark Shadows creeping, they're pulling me down

I thought I could leave, escape this town

But every step I take, it's a step too far

I'm a puppet in a war with no stars

I thought I could run, thought I could be free

But the streets they whisper, they won't let me be

I want out! I want out! Can't you hear me scream

Can't you hear me scream

Caught in a nightmare that's killing my dreams

I want out, I want out, but I'm losing hope

The streets hold me tight like a noose on a rope

The gunfire echoes in the dead of night

I see my reflection, but it don't look right

Blood on my hands, wasn't meant to be

But every choice drags me deeper into the sea

I thought I could run, thought I could be free

But the streets they whisper, they won't let me be

I want out! I want out! Can't you hear me scream

Can't you hear me scream

Caught in a nightmare that's killing my dreams

I want out! I want out! But I'm losing hope

The streets hold me tight like a noose on a rope

Another day, another face to fear

They say escape's near, but it's never clear

Friends turn to ghosts, and hope's a lie

I'm digging my grave, looking up at the sky

Running fast, but I'm not getting far

Flashing lights, bullets, leaving scars

One last chance, but the door slams shut

Can you feel the end, the final cut

I thought I could run, thought I could be free

But the streets they whisper, they won't let me be

I want out! Can't you hear me scream

Can't you hear me scream

Caught in a nightmare that's killing my dreams

I want out, I want out, but I'm losing hope

The streets hold me tight like a noose on a rope

I thought I was out, just one breath away

But the streets swallowed me, now I'm here to stay

I want out... I want out

but I'm gone too soon

Caught in the crossfire, under a blood-red moon
