Oh please come home but don't you stay, and bring the child but keep him away,
All that you need just out of range, and mind the rules as they will change...
How kind of you to just move in, I'll help you out but I'll pretend,
And this is nice how long you staying, Let the games begin and mental's what we're playing...
I thank you mother but the walls are closing in, (oh oh oh oh)
I fear the changing of the tide,
Once again I ride this roller coaster, this roller coaster,
CHORUS:
Way down south we roll
With everything we own
Way down south we go
Just to escape the unknown
We live in fear within our room, to stay in line I would presume,
Don't help yourself to anything, 'cause a change of face is just what it might bring...
No thank you mother this is all that we can take, (oh oh oh oh)
I need to keep my sanity,
And all because you're lost in some delusion, it's my conclusion...
CHORUS:
Way down South we'll roll,
With everything we own,
Way down south we'll go,
Just to escape the unknown...
In the shadows we will leave,
Skipping town just like common thieves,
Why'd you ask us to come home, if you'd no idea, what it'd take and what we just might need…
No more smiles and frowns,
No more ill at ease,
No more swings in mood,
Cause we're free...
CHORUS:
Way down south we roll
With everything we own
Way down south we go
Just to escape the unknown
Way down south we roll, way down south we roll, way down south we roll
Just to escape the unknown...
