Locked inside a game
Traveling on a paved board
Out of breath, out of air
I never get what I come for.

No one told me what I can do,
They just told me what I can't
So close your eyes and prepare to
Figure out what this whole journey meant.

I'm breaking the rules
I'm jumping out of my square
I'm breaking the rules
'Cause rules won't get me anywhere

So I'm skipping my turn
I don't mind running behind
I'm not losing,
I'm just losing my mind
And then I'll lose myself.

I'm so sick of the records
That some people seem to hold
I want to play on my own board -
Start from scratch or end it all.

I don't mind where I'll end up
'Cause there's no chance I'm going to win
I just want to know where I can run free
With no boundaries in-between.

I'm breaking the rules
I'm jumping out of my square
I'm breaking the rules
'Cause rules won't get me anywhere

So I'm skipping my turn
I don't mind running behind
I'm not losing,
I'm just losing my mind
And then I'll lose myself.
