[Verse 1]
Undercover of the dark night
Avoid the clattered streetlights
And disappear at dawn
Camouflage ourselves to get by
Hiding here in plain sight
Waiting for a sign to come

[Pre-Chorus]
It's the lottery of life
We all play to just get by
But some of us escaped
And found a better way, a better life

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
We are products of a place
But our ties have been erased
A wilderness awaits
And lost is something we've been tryin' to find

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
Gave up our place
I line to run so far away
To break free from
This endless race is never won
This endless pace we can't outrun

[Pre-Chorus]
The blade spinning closer
We'll keep our composure

[Chorus]
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
[Post-Chorus]
We got away (Ones that got away), yeah
Got away (Ones that got away)
We got away (Ones that got away), yeah
