I'll teach you how to disappear I need a willing volunteer Vanish into thin air, leave your worries on these crowded streets We're moving far away from here I don't expect to shed a tear Like a bull to a red rag Drag me out of the city that never sleeps Oh I can't believe I've lasted this long Breaking bones and wasting songs A secret society from prying eyes and sly deceits
I've changed my number don't try to call me I'm ready to escape I've often wondered if the future's the same as my fate Let's turn the world on its head Let's turn the world on its head
But I will not go quietly I've pledged my part in history Stick a flag wherever I go and make my mark on the people I meet There are those who aim to lack their strength They keep their passion at arm's length It's such a petty price to pay When you're wrestling with a losing streak I've tried to rise above it all Why bother with a fist in a wall? And all this searching for my soul Has drained me to an inch of my defeat
I've changed my number don't try to call me I'm ready to escape I've often wondered if the future's the same as my fate Let's turn the world on its head Let's turn the world on its head
We're moving far away from here I don't expect to shed a tear Like a bull to a red rag Drag me out of the city that never sleeps Oh I can't believe I lasted this long Breaking bones and wasting songs A secret society from prying eyes and sly deceits
I've changed my number don't try to call me I'm ready to escape I've often wondered if the future's the same as my fate Let's turn the world on its head Let's turn the world on its head
