Lyrics
S L I P T H R U M Y H A N D S
I·ve got to get away out of here
I·ve got to bail out before it·s too late
I·ve taken more than my fair share of this same old shit
I·m going to jump on an opportunity
To make an escape from this captivity
Because I·ll not be blinded by that kind of line
That I·ve heard so many times before
CHORUS
Because if I stay here any longer
If I don·t right all that is wrong
How can I continue on
Before every dream I·ve ever had
Like sand is going to slip right thru my hands
I·m going to be on my own merry way
No matter what the weather for worse or for better
Awake and embrace every day
I·ll throw my cards on the table and play
I·ll be going like the wind before the break of day
Because I·m not one to be hanging around
For that type of vibe that·s going to bring me down
CHORUS
All these familiar faces and these same old places
Are causing inside me these empty spaces
I want to retreat out of this rat race
I want to pick up all of this wasted grace
I·m going back to the basics
To rumble thru the jungle
Because I·ve had enough of all this mumbo jumbo
I·m going to cut to the chase before I·ll be damned
And let these dreams slip thru my hands
DOUBLE CHORUS to fade
