Escape​

​

These memories

They've taken over me

I've wanted to find peace

In my own life

 

Disparity 

The way it's meant to be

I want to find my piece

Of the light

 

The pain, itself

I wanted to forget

 

Come step outside

Look to the sky

I'll join you as you run and hide

Escape the past

Know that someday

We will all die

 

Let it be

Bring your mind some clarity

A brand new lease

On my own life

 

Integrity

The way it ought to be

Some honesty

In my own world

 

I tell myself

I'm trying to forgive

 

Come step outside

Look to the sky

I'll join you as you run and hide

Escape the past

Know that someday

We will all die

And therein lies 

A truth inside

Join me as I live to die

Escape at last

Know that we will live forever

In our own minds

 

I wanted to forget

I needed to forgive

I wanted to forget

Can I ever forgive? 

 

Come step outside

Look to the sky

I'll join you as you run and hide

Escape the past

Know that someday

We will all die

And therein lies 

A truth inside

Join me as I live to die

Escape at last

Know that we will live forever

In our own minds
