city limits

When we robbed the city limits,
there was no one there to let us,
so we had to give ourselves up

The plan had gone awry.
But we took our chance to bolt
because we saw nobody looking,

And we haven't stopped escaping
ever since the city limits

We've been reaching for the sky

We've been reaching for the sky
We've been trying to get a way
back to where we hatched the plan -

but the city limits everything,
it comes in close around us.
Like no one's ever watching you,
even though they can
