Get Out of Here

I've been down this road that leads nowhere
Just trying to get home again
Oh I wish it was just around this way
But I don't think I'll find it today
No I don't think I'll get out of here
Never get out of here

Each step I take is cold all alone
But I always feel like I get nowhere at all
If only someone could help me ahead
But I've seen no one and no words are said
No I don't think I'll get out of here

But oh, I'll make my way
Then no, it may be quick to say
That all of this will be okay
My heart is lost and my mind moves fast
I don't know how long I can last

It's a long long time since I've seen anyone
Is it me that they don't want to see
Oh it must just be how they are
Still I wish they'd care after I've come so far
And I don't think I'll get out of here
No I'll never get away

Why am I here?
Have I something to fear?
Is the end near?
No, I don't think I'll get out of here

But oh, I'll make my way
Then no, it may be quick to say
That all of this will be okay
My heart is lost and my mind moves fast
I don't know how long I can last
