The Great Escape

Paper bags and plastic hearts
All our belongings in shopping carts
Goodbye, we got one more night

Let's have fun and ride around
Make peace with an empty town
We can make it right

Throw it away, forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
Won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway

Watch it turn, let it fly
'Cause we are finally free tonight

Tonight will change our lives
It's so good to be by your side
But we'll cry, we won't give up the fight

Scream loud at the top of our lungs
They'll think it's just 'cause we're young
And we'll feel so alive

Throw it away, forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
Won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway

Watch it turn, let it fly
'Cause we are finally free tonight

All of the wasted time and
Hours that were left behind it
Answers that we'll never find
They don't mean a thing tonight

Throw it away, forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
Won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway

Throw it away, forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
Won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway

Watch it turn, let it fly
'Cause we are finally free tonight
