Lyrics

Dirty Lenses

[Verse 1]

So you take your chances

Look through dirty lenses

Unintended consequences

We don't need your ugly fences

We'll make our own way out of here

[Pre-Chorus]

Start a car

Get away

There's so much you could see today

[Chorus]

If we don't escape

We'll turn into

Everything we hate

But tell me, do

We even have a chance?

If we don't escape

The things we do

Won't make a difference

It's just me and you

And all our best laid plans

[Verse 2]

So we've run right off the map

Get away from all the traps

Inevitable consequences

Living only present tenses

Only living for the now

[Pre-Chorus]

Start a car

Get away

There's so much you could see today

[Chorus]

If we don't escape

We'll turn into

Everything we hate

But tell me, do

We even have a chance?

If we don't escape

The things we do

Won't make a difference

It's just me and you

And all our best laid plans

[Chorus]

If we don't escape

We'll turn into

Everything we hate

But tell me, do

We even have a chance?

If we don't escape

The things we do

Won't make a difference

It's just me and you

And all our best laid plans
