I fear what they'd do if they find i've escaped
I fear what they'd say if they find i play, i get scraped.
They want you to think it's possible to live a life without their chains
But if you, if you go too far, you'll find they're pulling on your reins.

I fear what they'd do if they finally catch me.
I fear they'd take my home if they find i roam, find i'm free.
They want you to think it's possible to live a life without their chains,
But if you, if you go too far, you'll find they're pulling on your reins.

But if they catch me, i will fight! i will run!
I will burrow underground!
They won't catch me, i need hope! i need air!
And i won't, i won't make a sound!

I fear the life i know if they make me go back
I fear i couldn't stand any more of the stifling black
They want you to think it's possible to live a life without their chains
But if you, if you go too far, you'll find they're pulling on your reins

But if they catch me, i will fight! i will run!
I will burrow underground!
They won't catch me, i need hope! i need air!
And i won't, i won't make a sound!

I fear what they'd do if they find i've escaped
