Tyrant Sun

Another kid from my town buried in the ground
Round and round and around we spin with feet of lead and wings of tin

I gotta get outta here fast
The future looks just like the past
I gotta get outta this place before it's too late
And still, I hesitate

Another girl from my class closed her eyes and breathed her last
That's a song that can't be unsung
That's a bell that can't be unrung

I gotta get outta here fast
The future looks just like the past
I gotta get outta this place before it's too late
And still, I hesitate

That tyrant sun above everyone
There's no escape from it's rays
They hold us in place and choose who leaves and stays
What does it take?
Chance, luck, choice, or fate?

Where are the young hearts of gold?
Slowing down
Growing old
And for me? It's destiny
There's no escaping that
Not for me

I gotta get outta here fast
The future looks just like the past
I gotta get outta this place before it's too late

I gotta get outta here fast
The future looks just like the past
I gotta get outta this place before it's too late
And still, I hesitate
Oh no
