I'm Here
Escape into the Night: Black Daggers' Tale of Freedom
Lyrics
I got a plan now, I'm gonna do it
I have formulated a plan and am ready to execute it.
I think I can finally make my escape
I believe I can finally escape from my current situation.
Wait for nightfall, there's nothing to it
I will wait for the cover of night, making the escape easier.
Slip out tonight while they're sleeping tight
I plan to slip away tonight while others are sound asleep.
Co-operating, here comes the roll call
A roll call is happening, and I will pretend to be in bed, cooperating.
Make them think I'm in bed tonight
I will make others believe I'm asleep while I prepare to leave.
Now it's lights out, I crack a window
With the lights out, I open a window, not looking back until I'm far away.
Won't look back until this place is behind
I am determined to leave this place behind.
I wanna run away, run away, yeah run away, I run
I express a strong desire to run away multiple times, emphasizing my departure.
I wanna run away, run away, yeah run away, I run
-I wanna run away, run away, yeah run away, I run
-I wanna run away, run away, I'm here, I'm gone
-In the city, I've got my freedom
I have found freedom in the city where I am unknown.
No one knows me and I'm here on my own
I am alone, and no one is familiar with me.
I'm feeling strung out and getting itchy
I feel stressed and anxious after being on my own for two days.
Been two whole days and I'm feeling it now
The duration of my solitude is affecting me emotionally.
Outside the walls but I'm feeling crowded
Despite being outside, I feel confined and crowded.
My freedoms only but a few steps away
My freedom is within reach, only a few steps away.
I hear the voices, they never left me
I still hear the voices that command me, and I must obey their call.
When they call I must obey
I am compelled to follow the instructions given by the voices.
I wanna run away, run away, yeah run away, I run
Repetition of the desire to run away and the acknowledgment of being present and then gone.
I wanna run away, run away, yeah run away, I run
-I wanna run away, run away, yeah run away, I run
-I wanna run away, run away, I'm here, I'm gone
-I wanna run away, run away, yeah run away, I run
Final repetition of the desire to run away, emphasizing the present and then being gone.
I wanna run away, run away, yeah run away, I run
-I wanna run away, run away, yeah run away, I run
-I wanna run away, run away, I'm here, I'm gone
