Lyrics[]
In my room, staying up late
And I'm planning my escape
Cause I know I can't stay
In my veins I got the feeling
Like there must be something more
I've never been so sure
All night and day
I dream of a place
Somewhere far, far away
Beyond the crowds and city lights
I wanna open up my eyes
And see you on the other side
These streets aren't easy
And I need your hand to hold
So I'm not alone
And I hear all these voices
Though they try to slow me down
I can tune them out
All night and day
I dream of a place
Somewhere far, far away
Beyond the crowds and city lights
Out of the darkness we can shine
So I'm packing my bags
I'm gonna leave it all behind
I wanna open up my eyes
And see you on the other side
Here it goes
I clear my throat
And cue the violins
Making moves
Shout it from the rooftops
I'm trying to live, yeah
Somewhere far, far away
Beyond the crowds and city lights
Out of the darkness we can shine
Somewhere far, far away
Beyond the crowds and city lights
Out of the darkness we can shine
So I'm packing my bags
I'm gonna leave it all behind
I wanna open up my eyes
And see you on the other side
