Escape
You look at me with the same old face
The monkey on your back is the latest craze
All these days you can while away
Counting so fast, see it's a lost case I know
You got me hangin' on the edge of my seat
We're all addicted to something and I guess I am just the same
Take a look inside my bedroom, hope that I will never change
You call it self destructive, but I know I'm just doin' me
When you can't be free from prying eyes, escape is what you need
And you'll get what you want like you always have
And I'll pour up a drink or I'll take a tab
To escape this life that I never really wanted
And I'll think of a time from a few years back
When we used to play skate in a cul-de-sac
And we weren't as sad, or at least just not this often
You try to run and end up where you started
Our world's a joke that we all play a part in
Numb your guts with drugs and blame the party
But I'm to blame for all the same, departed
And you'll get what you want like you always have
And I'll pour up a drink or I'll take a tab
To escape this life that I never really wanted
And I'll think of a time from a few years back
When we used to play skate in a cul-de-sac
And we weren't as sad, or at least just not this often
The monkey on your back is the latest craze
All these days you can while away
Counting so fast, see it's a lost case I know
You got me hangin' on the edge of my seat
We're all addicted to something and I guess I am just the same
Take a look inside my bedroom, hope that I will never change
You call it self destructive, but I know I'm just doin' me
When you can't be free from prying eyes, escape is what you need
And you'll get what you want like you always have
And I'll pour up a drink or I'll take a tab
To escape this life that I never really wanted
And I'll think of a time from a few years back
When we used to play skate in a cul-de-sac
And we weren't as sad, or at least just not this often
You try to run and end up where you started
Our world's a joke that we all play a part in
Numb your guts with drugs and blame the party
But I'm to blame for all the same, departed
And you'll get what you want like you always have
And I'll pour up a drink or I'll take a tab
To escape this life that I never really wanted
And I'll think of a time from a few years back
When we used to play skate in a cul-de-sac
And we weren't as sad, or at least just not this often
