Can't Get Away

Streets grow narrow
Trees up high
Up the stairs
My feet did fly
Leaves me loose
Strange and alive
Stumble into
The other side

Light shined through
In spite of the place
From the corner of my eye
Caught her face
A little strung out
Feeling fine
Tighten up
To unwind

I'm burning in
I'm fading out
Consumed by sin
On a virtuous route
Adrift by night
Tethered by day
Try as I might
I can't get away
I can't get away
No no no
No no no
Not today
Not any day
No no no
No no no

Works not getting you
Anywhere
Boss cuts your hours
He don't care
Make a little money
On a Friday night
Making it big is looking
Out of side

Into the alley
Fell on my knees
Head swimming around
Like a nest of bees
In this city
Spreads like a disease
From the high office men
Down to the plebs

I'm burning in
I'm fading out
Consumed by sin
On a virtuous route
Adrift by night
Tethered by day
Try as I might
I can't get away
I can't get away
No no no
No no no
Not today
Not any day
No no no
No no no

Walking right down
Marion road
Dignity
Gets bought and sold
Felt so hot
Skin got cold
The ground beneath me
Began to fold

People often disagree
The root of evil
Is clear to me
I digress
Hard to explain
So easy to come by
But hard to maintain

I'm burning in
I'm fading out
Consumed by sin
On a virtuous route
Adrift by night
Tethered by day
Try as I might
I can't get away
I can't get away
No no no
No no no
Not today
Not any day
No no no
No no no
I'm not aware and I just don't care
No no no
No no no
