Get Out of Here Alive
Lyrics by Ted Horrell

Caught up in my feelings if I’m awake I’m reeling
The punch has got me drunk on the floor
When I think I’m moving forward someone shows me the door and
I don’t know where I am anymore

Well I’m tired and I’m scared I’ll get caught unawares
While they say they’re coming up with a cure
All decorum is gone but the band plays on
And I don’t know if they’re really that sure
No I don’t know if they’re really that sure

Get me out of here
Cause I’m ready to leave and I’ll drive to anywhere
you want to guide me

I’ll bring a bottle to share
Cause I’m ready to take that ride
If we can get out of here alive

I’m surrounded on all sides and much to my surprise
The folks surrounding me are surrounded too
The logic is all circular the film’s a tear jerker and
My body’s screaming you’ve got to move

Get me out of here
Cause I’m ready to leave and I’ll drive to somewhere
That they’ll never find me
I’ll bring a bottle to share
Cause I’m ready to take that ride
If we can get out of here alive

I want to be the kind of person who waves when someone’s merging
And opens up the room with a smile
I’m so tired of being angry and having folks blame me
Cause their problems are stacked up in a pile

Get me out of here
Cause I’m ready to leave and I’ll drive to somewhere that they’ll never find me
I’ll bring a bottle to share
Cause I’m ready to take that ride
If we can get out of here alive
