Lyrics
Wake from your sleep
The drying of your tears
Today, we escape
We escape

Pack and get dressed
Before your father hears us
Before all hell breaks loose

Breathe, keep breathing
Don't lose your nerve
Breathe, keep breathing
I can't do this alone

Sing us a song
A song to keep us walkin'
There's such a chill
Such a chill

You can laugh
A spineless laugh
We hope your rules and wisdom choke you

Now we are one in everlasting peace
We hope that you choke, that you choke
We hope that you choke, that you choke
