Escape

by No Harm Done

1.
this is my escape. this is my escape.
2.
we're lost we don't know who we are forever lies in pieces exploding from the start we've lost we've given up this fight get me out of this town away from this sound i've lost i've given up my fight get me out of this town i've got nothing left but this nightmares bring influence a disregard for consequence and it's all i know how to fail, how to question loss of sleep force in ten directions coming down on me i hate this shining sun we're all burning away in these wasted days we can leave this all behind i don't want to be part of this decline
3.
there are far worse things than being alone but it often takes too many years to know and when you do it's just too late there's just nothing worse than no more time this is paradise this is paradise i'm running out of time and i'm losing my mind i'm running out of time but this is paradise i've lost the time i've lost my mind we've grown apart i've spent to many years just sitting back watching nights slow it's almost two am but i've still got time this is paradise fuck this paradise
4.
i'm so sick of building walls only to be torn down only to be forgotten we can't believe in what we see we can't believe in anything i'm throwing bricks from downtown rooftops why must the relentless keep coming incomplete? i'm throwing bricks from downtown rooftops only to find that i'm alone midnight can't sleep again nothing makes sense to me sound the alarms these walls are closing in i'm losing faith i can't find anymore space everything i know everything i love just comes and goes
5.
you're living in the past forced into regret by your own mind you're living in the past forced to forget the changing times fuck your glory days fuck your glory days the only thing you know is what's holding you back familiar faces turned inside out it's been 20 years since you lost it all what's another 45 anyways? nothing seems to change

years from now we'll be the same so close yet so far away and as the seasons change we slowly fade away and with each year hope is erased we're dying slow living wasted lives we'll all go down without a fight it doesn't have to be this way we can break tradition change our ways we're dying slow living wasted lives we'll all go down without a fight so lets break away i've seen better days it doesn't have to be this way

i've made up my mind i hate this place no change of seasons no change of days i'm burning up inside i can't keep from loosing my mind fuck the sunshine fuck this state my home state is haunting me again florida's fucking failed me i'm burning up inside i can't keep from loosing my mind fuck the sunshine fuck this state no change of seasons no change of days i want to get away
10.
my brothers this i dedicate to you for helping me get through these long and lonely nights somehow nothing else seemed so right to be with you is all i want to do living for something where each day brings something new alone in this world without you were always together doing nothing more than living without hope we have hope for this place somehow we'll all find a way to make it through these days we stand together alone we have hope for this place somehow we'll all find a way we're pushing we're trying shoulder to shoulder each moment each word our hopes these dreams this is our time our words and this is our song so sit back and take in the sights of the city lights maybe the hills somehow i'm doing what i love i wish you all knew
11.
my world is changing the sky used to be so true i'm losing faith i can't see any use the mountains will fall the seas will rise up and cover us all i can't do this on my own i can't change what we've been shown we need to merge and open the minds and eyes of the ignorant that can't accept the facts in front of their face it's too late you've made up your mind it's already changed for our future kids wait... there won't be any if it stays like this you are blinded by tradition and all the promises they've told you are blinded by tradition and all the values you hold
12.
another ninety bucks down the drain i can't slow down 14 hours away so put on "this is just the beginning" and let it play as we drive into the night on a quarter tank of gas it won't last but everything is gonna be alright no not this time around is what i tell myself no not this time around just let the record play no not this time around i'm not letting up no not this time around just let the record play
13.
chills run up my spine the forgotten sun won't shine lonely nights just seem to slow and they hold me back they hold me down we're all stuck on solid ground the cities fade as i watch life fall away out of step and out of mind your happiness i just can't find never been the kind to say i'm sorry never had the time to say goodbye never will i keep that promise no i won't ever see the sky
14.
it happened just like that only seconds to react feels like hours in the sun sweating nerves won't stop the blurring lines right in front of me i see a life just go like that but why? break lights soon end all thoughts there's no escaping what i saw repeating again and again i'll have to learn to feel again it happened just like that only seconds to react feels like hours in the cold frozen nerves won't stop the blurring lines right in front of me i see a life just go like that but why? they say everyone has their time but i just can't believe it
