Escape

 

 

I wrote this one at work (yeah, when I should have been working, heh).  I hated my summer job… and I was also being really melodramatic LOL.

 

 

Verse 1:

 

I know I should be strong

But my life is so unbearable sometimes

I know I should suck it up

And stick it out

But I still won’t be all right

 

I put a smile on my face

And pretend that I’m fine

Inside I’m crying

And I sob myself to sleep every night

 

Chorus:

 

I wanna escape to my fantasy

Run away to my sanctuary

I wanna leave the real world behind

And abandon this life

And go to a place where I can be free

 

Verse 2:

 

I look like I’ve got it all

If you look at me on the outside

But if you look closer

You’ll find someone

Who wants to run and hide

 

It’s like I’m two different people

With two separate lives

I’m part of two different worlds

One is hell, one’s paradise

 

Chorus:

 

I wanna escape to my fantasy

Run away to my sanctuary

I wanna leave the real world behind

And abandon this life

And go to a place where I can be free

 

I wanna escape to my fantasy

Run away to my sanctuary

I wanna leave the real world behind

And abandon this life

And go to a place where I can be free
