No One Gets Away

No One Gets Away - Down By Law

Written by：Dave Smalley

Wake up to the darkness of another day

You're determined today you'll get away

But all too soon you find that your day is set

And you haven't figured how to get out yet

All the images are so confusing

The thoughts in your head are so bruising

Coffee table world is so alluring

All the lines you drew once are blurring

You once were the rebel so full of hate

Now it seems the suit doesn't fit so great

View yourself a bit uneasily

This wasn't how it was going to be

You know that rationales are far too easy

But you've got to pay the rent and stay warm

Ideals battle with reality

You view the world as you know it to be

You once were the rebel so full of hate

Now it seems the suit doesn't fit so great

View yourself a bit uneasily

This wasn't how it was going to be

You built a foundation but it's hard to stay

Truth be told no one gets away

You say of course things change well I know things change

But that doesn't make it easier to piss it all away

All the images are so confusing

The thoughts in your head are so bruising

Coffee table world is so alluring

All the lines you drew once are blurring

You once were the rebel so full of hate

Now it seems the suit doesn't fit so great

View yourself a bit uneasily

This wasn't how it was going to be
