One Way Ticket

A knock strikes at my door at the eleventh hour
Asking me for more
Promised gold to keep me up sweating
Reel them in to hope they start forgetting soon
And I watch em come and watch em go
To keep your heels from dragging slow
Climb up with us to the highest peak
Tower over those checked out last week
And convince myself
Convince myself
There's still a ticket out
Street maps endless subway lines at every turn
But you can't seem to find your way
So much noise that's filling up the airways
Telling you I'm on the straight and narrow out of here
A moth trapped in two panes of glass
Occasions never came to pass
Fill your brain with helium
Rapids rise 'round everyone
And convince myself
Convince myself
There's still a ticket out

Hold on
Hold on
You gotta hold on
A tightened fist on play money
Don't wait long
Don't wait too long
A reflecting pool ripples in your eyes
Shows it isn't right
Oh, believe me
An illusion of being free
I'm building up steam
Building up steam
Building up steam
I think it's time to leave
