she’s the girl outside keeping the world away
holding her broken dreams that died yesterday
when she was young, she lost her fire
she’s a wild girl no worries for the day
just trying to get her fill
her appetite is not satisfied, endless desire
it’s all she seems to know
the days they come and go
they’re all the same
she just can’t change,
stuck in Egypt
she can’t leave it for a better place for a better life
stuck in Egypt
she’s only dreaming of a better place of a better life of a better way
he just lives inside a world of denial
hiding the past behind a door that wont close
when will he see, he’s lost control
he’s the handsome one who has everything
the wife and three kids, the house and the cars
still he’s far away, even when he’s home
it’s all he seems to know
the days they come and go
they’re all the same
he just can’t change
stuck in Egypt
he can’t leave it for a better place for a better life
stuck in Egypt
he’s only dreaming of a better place of a better life of a better way
what’s it gonna take for you to escape
what’s it gonna take for you to break the chains,
to finally face the pain and walk to freedom
are you gonna stay, will you walk away
stuck in Egypt
will you leave it for a better place for a better life
stuck in Egypt
there’s more than dreaming of a better place of a better life of a better way
stuck in Egypt
will you leave it for a better place for a better life
stuck in Egypt
there’s more than dreaming of a better place of a better life of a better way
