Gap In The Fence

  • And I lie here
    Staring up at the stratosphere
    And hoping we're gonna get out of here

    And it seems mad
    That we're born on the doorstep
    Of squalor and of pedestals

    And I lie here
    Surrounded by a range of general anesthetics

    To drowse the fact that fumbling insecurity
    Is not matched by spreading equalities

    In the sunlight
    Where you caught us,
    Plotting the downfall of hoarders
    In the sunlight where you caught us

    In the sunlight
    Where you caught us,
    Plotting the downfall of hoarders
    In the sunlight where you caught us

    It seems that every gap in the fence
    We'll peak, we'll scratch, we'll stretch, we'll grab anything we can

    And if we group together
    And made a bigger hope
    That just for our children's hands
    But for bigger plans

    Yeah if we group together
    And made hope
    Cause I don't know about you but I've gotta get out of here

    I've gotta get out of here
    I've gotta get out of here

    I've gotta get out of here
    I've gotta get out of here
    I've gotta get out of here
    Woah

    Woah-oh-oh-oh
    Woah-oh-oh-oh
    Woah-oh-oh-oh
    Woah-oh-oh-oh

    I've gotta get out of here
    I've gotta get out of here
    I've gotta get out of here

    Woah-oh-oh-oh
    Woah-oh-oh-oh
    Woah-oh-oh-oh
    Woah-oh-oh-oh

    Wheeling forth
    So turbulently
