Escape
Escaping.. Escaping.. Escaping.
Sitting here fully numb, I can't keep waiting..
I feel it ending.
The walls begin shaking, the room is collasping.
My mind is backtracking, and the last breath of air.. I'm grasping.
Collapsed upon.
Unfortunately the past can never be undone..
I'm holding onto this last breath, considering my life is in my lungs.
But now there is no going back.
Buried beneath lies and having been broken,
A lot has changed since we've spoken..
I'm over now... Making all the wrong choices.
I still smile and pretend I'm listening, when really all I hear are voices.
It's a shame this isn't written about me.
I've written it in your perspective,
Maybe this doesn't affect you, but it sure is affective..
You just can't tell because you're not affected.
Putting everything at stake,
For what? I ask... And you say,
To Escape.
