Escape My Mind

Smell the salt in my wet hair
Frangipani breeze in the air
Wake up to the tropical breeze
No sounds but the grass and the leaves

I left it all behind me here
Sadness, darkness, anger and fear
Not sure what parts are left to find
And if I can escape my mind
But I'll try

Wherever you go there you are
You can try
But I promise you won't get far
Learned the lesson so many times
You can run but you can't hide
From yourself
From yourself

Warm rays melt it all away
My perfect fantasy day
Dark clouds blow in from the sea
Beach clears and no one's left but me

I left it all behind me here
Sadness, darkness, anger and fear
Not sure what parts are left to find
And if I can escape my mind
But I'll try

Wherever you go there you are
You can fly
But I promise you won't get far
Learned the lesson so many times
You can run but you can't hide
From yourself
From yourself

Now I know there's nowhere to run
Travel the world but I can't have fun
Have to do the work
It's time to begin
The peace I seek only comes from within

So I'll try
'Cause wherever you go there you are
You can fly
I promise you will go far
We learned the lesson so many times
You can run but you can't hide
From yourself
From yourself
From yourself
