Get Away

I have to get away
Have to get away
I've left the class, but where can I go?
Not here, there are people
No, there are people here too
Even where there aren't people, there are cameras everywhere
My every move is being watched
There is no escape
My footsteps become more frantic
As I move from hallway to hallway
Past all the classrooms filled with judgemental people
I turn around and change direction
Nope– I turn around again
I need to get away from everyone
I need to get away
Get away get away get away
But there's nowhere I can go
There is no escape from all the judging eyes surrounding me
