Escapism

Look, look at you
You don't see what I do
Your eyes turn to ice
Turn to something borrowed and blue

Yes, it is true,
Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose
But don't think it's done when it hurts
Cause the body's so easily bruised.

Stuck in a motel,
Creeping on yourself
Reaching for something in the dark
You will keep going higher to fuel the desire
To feel something pounding in your heart.

Escapism, is another prison
Round the corner is another paradise
Escapism, is another prison
And you're always looking for a place to hide
You're always looking for a place to hide.

Look, look at me
I don't know what you see
I'd lie if I could and make everything easy

I'd say I feel safe, I feel blessed, I feel fine
I don't think it's done when it hurts
But I'm down in the dirt sometimes.

Put on a good dress and go do the dishes,
Dream up a life where I'm a star
I will keep going higher to fuel the desire
To feel something pounding in my heart.

Escapism, is another prison
Round the corner is another paradise
Escapism, is another prison
And I'm always looking for a place to hide
I'm always looking for a place to hide.

Run!
