"Way Out of Here" is a song by British progressive rock band Porcupine Tree, and the fifth track from their ninth studio album, Fear of a Blank Planet. A promo two-track single was released by Roadrunner Records intended for radio airplay. The record consists of the album version of the song and a radio edit, and is housed in a cardboard sleeve with unique artwork.[1]
"Way Out of Here" contains soundscapes provided by King Crimson's guitarist, Robert Fripp. It was written in order to replace the song "Cheating the Polygraph," which was intended to be on the album. However, the band decided it did not fit well the concept.[2] "Cheating the Polygraph" was later included on the Nil Recurring EP.
