Escape... As far away as you could ever know..."

You will be bound by what you are..."

"If you want to be a passenger
Bm                    G         A
Climb aboard with me we're leaving now

G          D/F#    Bm             Em
Than framed... By a picket fence and salary
              C
You sink them all down
                  Em
Then watch them float up
        Bm                 Em
Until the wheel has spun around
          Am
You will be bound by who you are..."

Only if you want to be a passenger..."
