Lucky Escape Songtext
von Years & Years

I wrote it down when I first met you
The way that you stared at me
You′re so damn smart, you think you're special
But maybe I wouldn′t agree
Don't lose perspective, we all get damaged
And some of us don't ever heal
But you must be happy without me

From all of the pictures I′ve seen of the two of you
Is he a model?
I′m not surprised, you're so vain
Let′s not pretend like we didn't have problems
And I′m back to being angry again
Yeah


You never said the things you wanted
You kept them in
You made a scene, and now it haunts you
What might have been
You're so deluded
You′re such a fake
And now you got somebody else to manipulate
I think I dodged a bullet
I made a lucky escape

You probably think I must be broken
Promiscuous boy, be ashamed
Well I can tell you, honey, I'm potent
At least I own up to mistakes
Don't lie to me now
Just have some courage
And show them who you really are
All this is too exposing

Do I have to see all the pictures of both of you
Is he a model?
I′m not surprised, I′m so vain
Let's not pretend like we′re solving the problem
And I'm back to being angry again
Yeah


You never said the things you wanted
You kept them in
You made a scene, and now it haunts you
(And now it haunts you)
What might have been
You′re so deluded
You're such a fake
And now you got somebody else to manipulate
I think I dodged a bullet
I made a lucky escape

You just come back a little too late
I′ll be making my lucky escape
You just come back a little too late
Make my lucky
Make my lucky escape

You just come back a little too late
I'll be making my lucky escape
You just come back a little too late
Make my lucky
Make my lucky escape

You never said the things you wanted
You kept them in
You made a scene, and now it haunts you
What might have been
You're so deluded
You′re such a fake
And now you got somebody else to manipulate
I think I dodged a bullet
I made a lucky escape
