Getaway Car Lyrics by Alex Warren

[Verse 1]
Fell asleep last night, I woke up as someone else (Woah-oh)
Forced to watch my life from a cold, dark prison cell (Woah-oh)
Heard a voice ring out that I did not recognize
Said, “Don’t lose yourself, don’t fool yourself”
Only fools are satisfied

[Pre-Chorus]
Made a deal, got a debt to pay
Show goes on, you know what they say

[Chorus]
Fake it ’til you make it, did I take it too far?
The Devil’s catching up to my getaway car
Always in my ear, saying, “You’re no winner”
If I blow this shot, then you’ll pull that trigger
Don’t know why I’m running, but I’m running like hell (I’m running like hell)
Everybody’s praying on the moment I fail (Moment I fail)
Closеr to the top, but the air gets thinnеr
If I blow this shot, then you’ll pull that trigger

[Verse 2]
Blame the fugitive, and I’m still the one they want (Woah-oh)
Oh, just some kid on the wrong end of the gun (Woah-oh)

[Pre-Chorus]
Made a deal, got a debt to pay
Show goes on, you know what they say

[Chorus]
Fake it ’til you make it, did I take it too far? (Take it too far)
The Devil’s catching up to my getaway car (Getaway car)
Always in my ear, saying, “You’re no winner”
If I blow this shot, then you’ll pull that trigger
Don’t know why I’m running, but I’m running like hell (I’m running like hell)
Everybody’s praying on the moment I fail (Moment I fail)
Closer to the top, but the air gets thinner
If I blow this shot, then you’ll pull that trigger

[Bridge]
Can’t get away, can’t get away
Can’t get away out my mind
Out of my mind
Can’t get away, get my getaway car
I’ll put it in drive
Can’t get away, can’t get away
Can’t get away out my mind
Out of my mind
Can’t get away, get my getaway car
I’ll put it in drive

[Chorus]
Fake it ’til you make it, did I take it too far? (Take it too far)
The Devil’s catching up to my getaway car (Getaway car)
Always in my ear, saying, “You’re no winner”
If I blow this shot, then you’ll pull that trigger
Don’t know why I’m running, but I’m running like hell (I’m running like hell)
Everybody’s praying on the moment I fail (Moment I fail)
Closer to the top, but the air gets thinner
If I blow this shot, then you’ll pull that trigger
