The Milk Carton Kids - Getaway lyrics

[Verse 1] The shatter of the bottles Would scare me something awful as a kid My fear how it would harden And find a home in places that I hid [Verse 2] I'd tear 'em down And run away But never found my getaway [Verse 3] Outside Tuscaloosa The time you thought you turned it all around Remember how you used to think You could salvage anything you found [Verse 4] You knew it then You know it now The rattle of chains Still rattles loud [Verse 5] In all those years of moving I was slowly losing all my names No matter what I'd ruin It couldn't hold a candle to the pain [Verse 6] My tears are real And all my own Pouring down there all alone [Verse 7] The soft roll of the water Reminds me of my father's parting words Son, now don't you bother Looking for your place out in the world [Verse 8] The tide will roll Through the waves Son, you'll find your getaway
