The Getaway

Please don't chase me anymore,

Nearly forgot just what I'm running for,

I meant no harm,

My gas pedal is to the floor;

People watch this on TV,

Never thought that this could happen to me,

I can't stop now and it still seems like a dream,

Never thought I'd hurt someone,

Now I see you clutching your gun,

You're playing for keeps,

There's no place left to run,

I had to make a choice I made it,

If I had another chance I'd take it,

I've got to find a way to make a getaway,

Today my future looked so bright,

All it took was one red light,

The sirens were close behind,

My brain said fight or flight,

So I ran from my mistake,

Not the best choice I could make,

The helicopter reminds me

That this time there' s no lucky break,

I always did things my own way,

Never cared what the experts say,

I thought they were so full of shit,

I guess it's time to pay,

I always dreamed I'd have it all,

Never thought I'd take the fall,

And now I've run out of chances

And all I can see is the wall
