Lay In Chains Lyrics by Ace Smith

Runaway Kid

2018

[Verse 1: Sampled vocal]
Take me away
I need to get out of here
My life is a mess, I can't take it no more
Let me escape
From my distorted mind
Don't hold me back and unchain me right now

[Chorus 1: Sampled vocal]
Please don't let me go to waste
I need my memories erased
Cause I'm running out of space
And the mirror shows no face
Please don't let me go to waste
I need my memories erased
Cause I'm running out of space
And the mirror shows no face

[Chorus 2: Sampled vocal]
I reach for the sky
Why won't you take me
Outside where I'll be free
And fly
I reach for the sky
Why won't you take me
Outside where I'll be free
And fly

[Verse 2: Sampled vocal]
I lay in chains
Darkness takes me alive
My life is at stake, I can't take it no more
Let me escape
From the distorted world
It tears me apart so unchain me right now

[Chorus 1: Sampled vocal]
Please don't let me go to waste
I need my memories erased
Cause I'm running out of space
And the mirror shows no face
Please don't let me go to waste
I need my memories erased
Cause I'm running out of space
And the mirror shows no face

[Instrumental]

[Chorus 2: Sampled vocal]
I reach for the sky
Why won't you take me
Outside where I'll be free
And fly
I reach for the sky
Why won't you take me
Outside where I'll be free
And fly
I reach for the sky
Why won't you take me
Outside where I'll be free
And fly
I reach for the sky
Why won't you take me
Outside where I'll be free
And fly

[Solo]

[Bridge: Sampled Vocal]
Take me away
I need to get out of here
My life is a mess, I can't take it no more
Take me away
I need to get out of here
My life is a mess, I can't take it no more

[Chorus 1: Sampled vocal]
Please don't let me go to waste
I need my memories erased
Cause I'm running out of space
And the mirror shows no face
