Song lyrics

We've been alright up until now,
But the air that we breathe
Is about to run out.
We've rehearsed our lines
Clear and loud,
But the cue never came and the lights,
They never went down.
So we're passing the time
While time passes us,
The fast lane's a term
Never applied to us.
Without a dime to my name,
Or a prayer in the world,
I walk out the door.

Destination anywhere but here.
Away from you.

[Chorus:]
Now I'm on my way to the other side,
I'll forget everything I left behind.
These empty rooms
Are still filled with you.

So I dropped out of my own race,
A race with no finish line,
No first or last place.
These faces all rush right past me,
I turn and walk away,
Cause we finally know now
What our time here's about,
We were not meant to be
Another face in the crowd.
We're a forest of lives,
But we grow tall and wide,
We'll never be cut down.

Destination anywhere but here.
Away from you.

[Chorus]

I'm so tired and turned around
And scared.
I'm lying in empty beds again.
I'll wait for you to come to your senses
Barbed-wire fences won't keep me
From breaking through,
I swear I will to you.

[Chorus:]
Now I'm on my way to the other side,
I'll forget everything I left behind.
These empty rooms
Are still filled with you.

I'm so tired and turned around
And scared.
I'm lying in empty beds again.
Away from you.
