===================================================

One more time and out the door I could not ever ask for more I think we knew it was a crime But we just had so little time I heard a crash and then a shout And soon we labored soaked in doubt The rope was tight but now went slack And so there was no turning back And now our fervor turned to fear As running guards were coming near We thought that we could make a run But now we know we’re really done So freedom is a fleeting fire Escape is an enticing liar Now time is added to our stay It’s time to plan another day
