I got away as fast as I could
I had no idea where I was going
Or what I would do when I got there
But I kept running and running and running and running
The rising sun had yet to burn off the morning dew
Blades of grass glistened in the sun as my wet feet ripped through them
I wiped my brow repeatedly with the back of my hand
My eyes stinging from the sweat trickling into them
I felt the beginning of a stitch in my side
As the lactic acid started to build up
I kept running and running and running
And did everything I could to keep running!

We're waiting for your
Hope you know how to get through

I didn't know what road to take
I didn't know what case to make
I had to prove I wasn't fake
With something more than
A secret handshake

I turned the corner and sped down the alleyway
I was racing downhill, leaning forward I almost began to tumble
I didn't look down but I could feel the sidewalk fall out below me
Every touch of my foot began to get lighter and lighter and lighter
It was like I was riding the edge of a cyclone
The world rushed by faster, and faster than I could make out
But still I knew how to pour it on
Finally I saw it way off in the distance
I ran and ran and ran to get there
Soon enough I arrived, I sprinted up to the gate
And at the end of the street I screamed "Let me in! Let me in! Let me in!"

We're waiting for your
Hope you know how to get through

I didn't know what road to take
I didn't know what case to make
I had to prove I wasn't fake
With something more than
A secret handshake

We waited for your
We all knew that you'd get through

I didn't know what road to take
I didn't know what case to make
I had to prove I wasn't fake
With something more than
A secret handshake

I didn't know what road to take
I didn't know what case to make
I had to prove I wasn't fake
With something more than
A secret handshake
