I Can’t Get Out Lyrics by Sarah Bettens

Shine

0

5 O'clock and still I'm on my own
Better to be fast asleep when he comes home
Maybe not alone

Sometimes when I close my eyes I see
How much better life would be without him here
How alive I'd feel

But I can't get out, can't get out
I got just what I had coming to me
I can run all day but I can't get out

I've learned to move
And never make a sound
I make sure to shut my mouth when he's around
I talk too loud

And I can't get out, can't get out
This is all I know be
And I can't get out, no I can't get out
I got just what I had coming to me
I could run all day but I can't get out

I fell in love when I was seventeen
I turned into a wife
I swore I'd never be
But here I am

And I can't get out, I can't get out
This is all I know to be
And I can't get out, no I can't get out
I got just what I had coming to me
I can run all day but I can't get out

And I can't get out
No I can't get out
And I can't get out
