The Great Escape Lyrics

I have changed my mind

I think that life is boring

And I don't suppose

You'd wanna take me away

Close your eyes

Until the early morning

And then when we wake

We'll make our great escape

I see rings of light

I think the sky is falling

It's a beautiful day

To be so far away

In the night we'll

Set the world on fire

You're afraid of the dark

And I am just afraid

Your name is called

And I can hear you waiting

For a hole in the wall

Where you can spend your time

They'll offer a hand

And drag you farther under

You're afraid of the dark

Cause you're afraid to die

They'll fill you up

Until you're fat and greedy

I expected more

But really what can I say

The only truth to what

The preacher's selling

Is the fear that keeps you

Coming back every day
