Should never have left the crystal lake 
For areas where trees are fake

It's shining like the chandelier 
Shining somewhere far away from here 
CHORUS
I've gotta get outta here 
I've gotta get outta here 
I've gotta get outta here 
I've gotta get outta here...
And find my way again 
I've lost my way again
