Escape Hatch (feat. Sailing Before The Wind)
Treading through the mud and bones
Nothing but vacant buildings surround me
The stench of despair hangs low in the air
While the comets fall through the atmosphere
They're patrolling the ocean floor
Surveilling the continents
Gravesites warn of
The tragedy ahead
All along - I've held my head above the water
Something's wrong - I'm not getting any farther
A wise man once said that
Evil is clever, and did you know that
Its most powerful weapon is deception?
We had our chance before it was too late
I can see that now this is my mistake (our mistake)
Believing good and hating evil - it's a fool's errand
And yet I loved this world
Please hold on to your memory
Come talk to me at midnight
Please don't give in to the gravity
We'll sleep through the sunrise
Whisper now as I collapse
"It didn't mean anything"
Just take me far from this planet
And let me escape
Tell the sun to blind my eyes
'Cause all I've seen is failure by design
I'm holding the ring in my hand
I know that you won't understand
We fought their containment
We're not their entertainment
Nothing but vacant buildings surround me
The stench of despair hangs low in the air
While the comets fall through the atmosphere
They're patrolling the ocean floor
Surveilling the continents
Gravesites warn of
The tragedy ahead
All along - I've held my head above the water
Something's wrong - I'm not getting any farther
A wise man once said that
Evil is clever, and did you know that
Its most powerful weapon is deception?
We had our chance before it was too late
I can see that now this is my mistake (our mistake)
Believing good and hating evil - it's a fool's errand
And yet I loved this world
Please hold on to your memory
Come talk to me at midnight
Please don't give in to the gravity
We'll sleep through the sunrise
Whisper now as I collapse
"It didn't mean anything"
Just take me far from this planet
And let me escape
Tell the sun to blind my eyes
'Cause all I've seen is failure by design
I'm holding the ring in my hand
I know that you won't understand
We fought their containment
We're not their entertainment
