 As long as I remember I've been learning to escape
 I lock myself in places, situations I can't change
 I feel older than my age is, they say I'm too young to know
 Tomorrow's my 10th birthday, I'll take my BMX and go
 I'll be a master of illusion, and live by the honor code
 I'll do my work in private and I'll keep my secrets close
 I'm sick of all the grownups, and how everybody lies
 Don't ever under-estimate a kid with seven lives
 Break away like Houdini
 While there's still some mystery
 Tomorrow you won't see me
 By the time you find this tape
 I'll have made my great escape
 They put me in these boxes, with too many locks to pick
 Running out of breath is how I lost life number six
 But I know I'm getting better, I'll do anything to survive
 And I think I kind of like life number five
 Break away like Houdini
 While there's still some mystery
 Tomorrow you won't see me
 By the time you find this tape
 I'll have made my great escape
 I'm out here on my own now, with no family or friends
 Chains I can get out of, it's love I don't understand
 I guess there's only so much escaping you can do
 And just like that I burned lives four to two
 Break away like Houdini
 While there's still some mystery
 Tomorrow you won't see me
 By the time you find this tape
 I'll have made my great escape
 I'm older now and wondering why I wanted to get out
 So I found that tape and listened to me say the
 Words out loud
 I'm sure I can't remember what I kept running to
 What I made them think was magic wasn't true
 So gone is all the glamour, the crowds, the mystery
 For my final trick I'll tell you how life up here looks to me
 Even someone like Houdini never really got away
 I guess I'm outta lives now, I wish I cherished every day
 When you only have one life, you better cherish every day
