I wanna take a plane,
Away from here.
Get on a train, get on the tracks;
And never look back.

I wanna run,
Far away.
Never look over my shoulder,
Never feel that dismay.

I want sail,
Far out to sea.
I want to smell the sea salt,
I want to get away.

I want to arrive,
At a distant tropical island.
Wash away my troubles,
Hide away in the sand.

I want to climb up,
That giant mountain.
Show everyone that I'm so much more
Than what they thought of me.

I want to fall in quicksand,
To see the realm below.
If I never returned,
Well that'd be okay with me.

I want to lie,
In a meadow of daisies.
Smell the aroma,
Feel the calm.

I want to sneak away,
In the depths of the night.
Climb up to someone's window,
And feel the rush of being disobedient.

I want to live,
In my favorite book.
The characters coming alive,
The scenery in front of my eyes.

I want to jump into,
Your world.
Introduce me
To all your thoughts.

I want to sleep away,
Into a better day.
I want to get out of here,
And never come back.
