Once had dreams, once had ambitions

A free spirit that could not be tamed

But now the same old faces and tired conversations

Each day feels just the same

No one listens to the words I say, feel I don’t belong

My self belief is fading away

I’ve been here too long

 

When I look at the whites of their eyes

I can see right through their disguise

Hypocrisy and lies

 

I’ve gotta get outta this place I’ve been here too long

I’ve gotta get outta this place I’ve been here too long, too long, too too long

 

Comes a time, take a look at your life

Wake up to realisation

Tolerance dries up

No wish to conform

Can’t bury your frustration

The time is slipping away

Where did it all go wrong

I die a little day by day

I’ve been here too long

 

When I look at the whites of their eyes

I can see right through their disguise

Hypocrisy and lies

 

I’ve gotta get outta this place I’ve been here too long

I’ve gotta get outta this place I’ve been here too long, too long, too too long
