J. Brodersen - Getaway Lyrics

I wonder what would make this
Tainted city light up for you
I guess I could confess, I could
Spill out my guts and tell the truth

She said, "I know you need a getaway
But you don't get to tell me that
Not when I'm halfway out the door
Without a moment to think back"
My getaway's been barren deserts
So much for last ditch efforts
She said, "I know you need a getaway
But you don't get to tell me that"

She can't keep on a leash now
Just to calm my nerves and keep me honest
I think it's been three times now so
Where's the charm that I was promised?

She said, "I know you need a getaway
But you don't get to tell me that
Not when I'm halfway out the door
Without a moment to think back"
My getaway's been barren deserts
So much for last ditch efforts
She said, "I know you need a getaway
But you don't get to tell me that"

Scorching June, she's on my tail again
I can't pretend
Where's the time go? I don't know, it's been
Flying since we met

You don't get to tell me
You don't get to tell me that
You don't get to tell me
You don't get to tell me that

She said, "I know you need a getaway
But you don't get to tell me that
Not when I'm halfway out the door
Without a moment to think back"
My getaway's been barren deserts
So much for last ditch efforts
She said, "I know you need a getaway
But you don't get to tell me that"
She said, "I know you need a getaway
But you don't get to tell me that"
