Escape Artist


I always thought it would be easy to get you out my mind 

I thought I found a new addiction and it felt so right

But when you left me I cried all night

But now I'm fine

 

I've escaped the light

But im not living right

I've escaped your sights cause you left me out to dry

Im not gonna lie I didnt wanna try but now im alright

 

Lost in this world of my own

Where everything feels so unknown

Is this part of your show?

I guess I'll just never know

 

I've tried to wake up from this dream

But nothing is quite as it seems

I can't break free reality is mocking me

But I can't let anyone see

 

I'm not the smarest but I've worked the hardest

I'm lost, i'm star stuck

And I can't be found

The clock is ticking and time is running out

 

It's time to go the farthest

And leave all this darkness

I gotta do what my heart must

And become an escape artist
