This is a state of emergency

Held down for an eternity, victims

Tell me, are you list'ning

Let's break out of this prison cell

Create stories the world will tell their children

In time, we'll be forgiven



But tonight, you and I

We can make our escape

From the choices we made

So let's run, for our lives

Just like we're animals

'Cause, baby, we're criminals



Spotlights, tracing our every move

Hearts race, breathless and bulletproof, I'll hold you

Won't let anybody hurt you

This fight, fell at our footsteps

And I swear, the further that we get, the closer we are

To finding love in these scars



'Cause tonight, you and I

We can make our escape

From the choices we made

So let's run, for our lives

Just like we're animals

'Cause, baby, we're criminals



Yeah, we're all against the wall

Looking for a way around

On the run like criminals

Breaking out



But tonight, you and I

We can make our escape

From the choices we made

So let's run, for our lives

Just like we're animals



'Cause tonight, you and I

We can make our escape

From the choices we made

So let's run, for our lives

Just like we're animals

'Cause, baby, we're criminals



'Cause, baby, we're criminals
