So urgent the need
To make an escape
Change the scenery
Change the landscape
So brutal the need
To find a new life
To plant a new seed
I want to get away
From this life that I lead
Back away from the fire
No warnings to heed
I want to feel everything
Feel the starvation
Feel the hunger
Feel that forceful drive
I am tired of giving so much away
Wistfully thinking
I\'ll get it back some day
But no good deed
Goes unpunished you know
And that is the reason
I simply must go
So urgent the need
To make my escape
A daydream is calling
You find my need oh so appalling
But the adventure still beckons
The excitement so enthralling
So urgent the need
To make an escape
Change the scenery
Change the landscape
