"Getaway" lyrics

"Getaway"

Everyone's a critic looking back up the river
Every boat is leaking in this town
Everybody's thinking that they'll all be delivered
Sitting in a box like lost and found

But I found my place and it's alright
We're all searching for our better way
Got yours off my plate
It's alright, I got my own way to believe

Find a lighthouse in the dark stormy weather
We all could use a sedative right now
Holy rollers sitting with their backs to the middle
All hands on deck, sinking is the bow

And if you wanna have to pray, it's alright
We all be thinking with our different brains
Got yours off my plate
It's alright, I got my own ways to believe, it's OK

Sometimes you find yourself having to put all your faith in no faith
Mine is mine and yours won't take its place
Now, make your getaway
Science says we're making love like the lizards
Try and say that fossils ain't profound
Simon says that we are not allowed to consider
Simon says, "Stand up. Sit down. You're out!"

But I found my place
And it's alright, I'm bearing witness to some stranger days
Got yours off my plate
It's alright, I've got my own way to believe
It's OK, sometimes you find yourself being told to change your ways
There's no way, mine is mine and yours won't take its place
Now make your getaway

It's OK, sometimes you find yourself having to put all your faith in no faith
Mine is mine and yours won't take its place
Now make your getaway, it's OK
Sometimes you find yourself being told to change your ways
For God's sake, mine is mine and yours won't take its place

Now, make your getaway
Now, make your getaway
