Peter Cincotti
Make It Out Alive
Ah well he had nothing to lose
It was time to cruise
And he got out of that place
He knew just what to do And made every move Without leaving a trace
He jumped over the fence And hit the ground
Running as fast as he could
Without making a sound
His feet were flying trough dirt and mud
Each step propelled by a rush of blood
And all he wanted to do After all these years inside Was make it out alive
Make it out alive
Well he's been running away
Ever since the day
He dropped out of school
He never did what they Told him he should
He just was no good At following rules
SongtexteBut he learned how to get What he wanted alright
By using a gun and a switchblade knife
He'd start a fight and kill on a whim
And take your life like it belonged to him
And he always thought
If he ever did get caught
He'd make it out alive
Oh make it out alive
Oh when the cops came around
They put him under arrest
But he couldn't care less
He didn't need to blink When they threw him Against the wall
He didn't think he did
Anything wrong at all
So they locked him up
And they put him away
But he knew that he was
Gonna escape one day
And so he did
And ever since then
They tried
But they never saw His face again
Right now he's bumming around
In a small town Down in Mexico
And every day he Tells himself he's free
But he doesn't feel it though
He still falls asleep With just one eye closed
Looking over his shoulder Wherever he goes
He's got a boat And a house on the beach
But he hasn't lived One day in peace
Cause you gotta do much more
Than just survive
To make it out alive
Oh make it out alive Oh make it out alive Oh make it out alive Make it out make it out make it out alive Make it out alive Make it out alive Make it out alive Make it out alive
