Lyrics Rise Against - The Black Market - 13. Escape Artists

Undercover of the dark night
Avoid the clattered street lights
And disappear at dawn

Camouflage ourselfs again fight
Hiding here in plain sight
Waiting for a sign to come

It's the lottery of life
We all play to just get by
Some of us escaped
Found a better way, a better life

The ones that got away now
Drifted from the herd
Slip through the fingers of your world
The ones that got away now
Never to return
We left your world, to build our own

And off the grid we're building
Able but unwilling
To bow to this design

There is a light, there is a way out
Safe before we all drown
The boundaries have been redefined

We are products of a place
But our ties have been erased
A wilderness awaits
And lost is something we've been trying to find

The ones that got away now
Drifted from the herd
Slip through the fingers of your world
The ones that got away now
Never to return
We left your world, to build our own

Give up our place
in line to run so far away
To break free from
This endless race is never won
This endless pace we can't outrun

The blade's spinning closer
We keep our composure

We are the ones that got away now
Drifting from the herd
We are the ones that got away now
Never to return

And from your clutches we're escaping
Yeah, from your grip, we are breaking free

We got away (ones that got away)
Yeah!
Got away (ones that got away)
We got away (ones that got away)
Yeah!
