The plan is set, the convict sprung
Wheels are set in motion
And the impossible done
I crawl to the daylight
I find myself on an empty street
With no time to spare
The hounds will soon pick up my scent
A phone booth is in sight
Then I wake up in the dark
Thinking about places I'll never go
I want to find my inner joy
Keep it in a safe place
And I'll never let it go
I want to find my inner joy
Keep it in a safe place
And I'll never let it go
Funny how life becomes
Something you never intended
And you're washed up on quotidian shores
I hear you wake, singing songs
Greet the day in your innocent way, I pray the day
You forget never comes
I wake up in the dark
Thinking about places I'll never go
Wake in the dark
Thinking about faces I'll never know
I want to find my inner joy
Keep it in a safe place
And I'll never let it go
