Get Me Out

​

Get me out, get me out
I can hear the people shout
As we run for our lives, as we try to survive
Get me out, get me out, get me out

Leave my home and all I have, grab a bag and grab a child
Run away from the guns, run to where our safety lies
Will I make it through the gate? I cannot climb the wall or wire
Even though I’m young and fit can I reach - where safety lies?

Get me out, get me out
I can hear the people shout
As we run for our lives, as we try to survive
Get me out, get me out, get me out

​

I feel abandoned and forgot. Did I believe the lies?
After all that I have done am I to be denied?
Thankfully we found some seats, into the sky we fly
A huge sigh of relief I’m in a place where safety lies

​

Get me out, get me out
I can hear the people shout
As we run for our lives, as we try to survive
Get me out, get me out, get me out

​

And how did this all happen?
It’s no different than before
Under another tyranny that we had to endure
Yet another occupier leaves us in defeat
Why can’t we be left alone to live our lives in peace?

​

Get me out, get me out
I can hear the people shout
As we run for our lives, as we try to survive
Get me out, get me out, get me out

Get me out, get me out
I can hear the people shout
As we run for our lives, as we try to survive
Get me out, get me out, get me out

Get me out, get me out
I can hear the people shout
As we run for our lives, as we try to survive
Get me out, get me out, get me out
