Escape Songtext
von Prelude

You can see it with just a glance
That you don′t stand a chance
Bear this burden alone
Regrets you won't ever atone

Nights feel like a haze
And bring even bleaker days
Month after month, year after year
There soon won′t be a thing to repair

There's no escaping this meaningless end
Watching your dreams decay
Bury your anger, begin to descend
Let your hopes go astray

Killing time, 'til it′s over
Until you′re nothing more than a leftover
Wasting hours, numbing your soul
Acting surprised when it takes its toll


Once a coward, always a fool
Bending over to play by the rule
And maybe you had your chance
It could have worked in another circumstance

You would like to be another man
Disappointing since your life began
You don't want to care but you do
You′ll never be able to pull through

Killing time, 'til it′s over
Until you're nothing more than a leftover
Wasting hours, numbing your soul
Acting surprised when it takes its toll

Stumble upon the lies you told
Why is it that you′re so cold?
It's time to shine, take off your blindfold
Deep down you know you won't ever grow old

Once it takes the hold of you
It′s not going anywhere
Always a part of everything you do
Hidden in your stare


Nights feel like a haze
And bring even bleaker days
Month after month, year after year
There soon won′t be a thing to repair

There's no escaping this meaningless end
Watching your dreams decay
Bury your anger, begin to descend
Let your hopes go astray

Burn the candle, forget to sleep
A grimful fate that runs deep
Every road ahead is too steep
This empty feeling, let it creep

Chasing happiness you will never find
A quest for purpose that made you go blind
Every step forward felt like falling behind
Sorrow and grief to fill up your mind

There′s no escaping this meaningless end
Watching my dreams decay
Bury my anger, time to make amend
Hurry down the hallway

Grab these bottles to drown down a few pills
No need to write my wills
Put my head up, and tie down the noose
Let my life go loose
