Tried to fall in line and give it all to get through
All the growing pains and lonely nights awake
Oh, I realize I'll never see the people we could be
And they look at us like we can never change

They call us young and dumb, some kind of heathens
Let's just run far from the feeling
Here's to us making a getaway
Let's get so far gone, they won't believe it
Three, two, one, countdown to freedom
Here's to us making a getaway

(Making a gеtaway, making a getaway)
(Making a getaway, making a getaway)

Wе've done everything to censor all the hatred
All the shades of black and blue, they start to fade (fade)
Oh, we take the colors in our minds
and place them in the light (Ah)
And it's looking like our moment to escape (Ooh-ooh)

They call us young and dumb, some kind of heathens
Let's just run far from the feeling
Here's to us making a getaway (making a getaway)
Let's get so far gone, they won't believe it
Three, two, one, countdown to freedom
Here's to us making a getaway

(Making a getaway, making a getaway)
(Making a getaway, making a getaway)

They call us young and dumb, some kind of heathens (Oh)
Let's just run far from the feeling
Here's to us making a getaway (making a getaway)
Let's get so far gone, they won't believe it
Three, two, one, countdown to freedom
Here's to us making a getaway (making a getaway)
