Why do I live in the past 
And why should it hurt me to ask
If someone can hear
I'm standing right here
But this talking aloud cannot last

I've never been one full of words
It's much better to hide in a smile
With nothing to say, I'd just walk away
Disappear to my room and shake my fists
Think things over and stare into the wall

And all this time I feel like screaming
Turn that key
Let me out, let me out
Let me hold onto someone
Let me out, let me out
I'll feel hiding for someone

Let me out, let me out
Let me hold onto someone
Let me out, let me out
I'll feel hiding for someone

Inside it's so easy to breathe
But never so easy to leave
And just when I try
The fence gets too high
So I sleep with my head on my sleeve

And I dream of us flying away 
To a place that is out of the way
And there's somebody there 
Who says I don't care
Who you are, where you're from, what you need
Or what you're thinking, we love you anyway 

And all this time I feel like screaming
Turn that key
Let me out, let me out
Let me hold onto someone
Let me out, let me out
I'll feel hiding for someone

Let me out, let me out
Let me hold onto someone
Let me out, let me out
Let me hold onto someone
Hold onto someone

And I dream of us flying away
Flying away
