We tried so hard to escape. I guess my heart got caught on the barbed wire. I sat on the fence and watched you leave, watched you leave me behind. My fingers locked in the chain link, my body paralyzed by the spotlights. I’ll always be locked up in you.

running from it could only get us so far.
We tried so hard to escape. I guess my heart got caught on the barbed wire. I sat on the fence and watched you leave, watched you leave me behind. My fingers locked in the chain link, my body paralyzed by the spotlights. I’ll always be locked up in you.
