Watching all these people
Walk in a straight line every day
Maybe they have their reasons
To never turn the other way
I'm a lot like them
Hiding myself in the crowd
And I know the feeling
What it's like to get stuck on the ground

I can see it in their eyes that
Claustrophobic state of mind and
You won't fly until you try
Don't run and hide, don't run and hide (x2)

A growing paranoia
On a parade thru our fading town
The fear of change and conflict
Is holding everyone within bounds
Is it the new world order?!
If it is I'm going insane
But we're on a mission
Nothing to lose and so much to gain

I can see it in their eyes that
Claustrophobic state of mind and
You won't fly until you try
Don't run and hide, don't run and hide (x2)

Make a choice straight to hell or paradise
Make some noise no need to apologize
Break it up
Take a ride and let it out
Not better safe than sorry
Make a choice straight to hell or paradise
Make some noise no need to apologize
Come along
Join us on the other side
Don't run and hide, don't run and hide
