Escape Lyrics



Escape (intro)
(MacDaniels, Phillips)

tick tock & the clock starts ringing
wanna throw it through the window
head in to the pillow
no sleep hold tight another night
hold up hold up is this real life?

running all around
always running late
all this shit on my plate
oh it's all so fake
just gonna deal with it tomorrow
at least that's what I say
right now escape escape escape

oh it's too early in morning
and I'm oh so tired
oh it's so late in the evening
no I can't shut my eyes

right now
escape escape escape



Timebomb
(MacDaniels, Lackner, Phillips, Interdonato)

now when we make it to the one
oh it's almost done
countdown to the end
then it starts again

but where did all the time go?
spinning round in circles
just wondering wondering
where did all the time go?

oh I don't wanna worry
but it gets a little blurry
the world keeps spinning round
spinning round spinning round in a hurry

yea you're time is gonna come
maybe not for now
maybe not today
yea you're time is gonna come
maybe not for now
maybe not today

oh they say it's a big one
no time to run
do you feel it coming on?
coming on coming on now it won't be long

where did all the time go?
spinning round a black hole
just wondering wondering
where did all the time go?

I wanna change my luck
one more penny in the well
sometimes its a nightmare living the dream
can't tell if it's heaven or hell
been floatin in the rift here
hard to get a grip
sometimes you stumble and sometimes you slip
but the time it ticks and I can not quit
so it's up and up and away I get

the time is gonna come
maybe not for now
maybe not today
yea you're time is gonna get there
gonna come around
gonna fade away



Heavy
(MacDaniels, Custer, Interdonato)

been waiting here for the time is right
I see you step out in to the light
who got that loud?
think it might be you
yea it's you
might be you

well do you wanna get high?
do you wanna get heavy?

forget your troubles and ease your mind
let it go put it in the sky
you got that twinkle all in your eyes
keep coming on back
think I might know why why why

do you wanna get high?
do you wanna get heavy?

gonna get right gonna break it down gonna fly
now do you wanna get high?
gonna break it down gonna fly
now do you wanna get?

do you wanna get high?
do you wanna get heavy?



Dangerous
(MacDaniels, Interdonato)

oh listen what you say now
what you say what you say what you say
can't look away now
look away now
every day every day every day

well don't it all don't it all don't it all
well don't it all just bring you down?
can't stop going round and round and round

so dangerous
oh you're so dangerous
what is it now?

smoke and mirrors
smoke and mirrors

I get the chills now
I get the chills I get the shakes
head ain't on straight
feeling so beat down
and around and round and round and round it goes now
round and round and round

self self self self self self self
self sabotage

so dangerous
oh you're so dangerous

smoke and mirrors
smoke and mirrors
everywhere now

round and around we go
round and around we go
round and around we go
round and around we go



The Breakers
(MacDaniels, Interdonato)

oh I can't pretend
it didn't happen how it did
now this is how it goes
no you can't re-write the end

and if you don't know where to go
oh you gotta get away
and swim out past the breakers
oh escape escape escape
escape escape escape

oh we gotta keep on dreaming
break through the black and white
and see it all in color
see it all so bright
see it all so bright

well we were thrown in to this world
you can't help where you land
and it don't matter what they tell us
cause they'll never really understand

and if you get stuck in a bad place
well can I help you get away?
we can swim out past the breakers
oh escape escape escape

oh we gotta keep on dreaming
break through the black and white
and see it all in color
see it all so bright
now this is how the story goes
no you can't re-write the end
so turn it off and put it down
you'll never get it back again
you never get it back again

no you can't re-write the end



Static
(Interdonato, MacDaniels)

oh when my head hits the pillow
oh I know it's time to go to war
when my head hits the pillow

oh when my head hits the pillow
oh I know it's time to go to war
when my head hits the pillow

oh in my dreams
like static on the screen
black white and relentless
until you appear in color
oh my dreams

when my head hits the pillow
oh I know only time will tell
only time will tell til I know
when I'll be home again



Getaway
(MacDaniels, Interdonato)

I'm on the run
running out of time
gotta keep running
think I'm gonna lose my mind
oh I gotta get away
no I can't fall behind
oh johnny law ain't gonna take me down tonight

I hear his pistol ringing in the sky
hear the sirens singing in the night
flashing lights in the distance

I'm on the run
running out of time
gotta keep running
think I'm gonna lose my mind
oh I gotta get away
no I can't fall behind
oh johnny law ain't gonna take me down tonight

my baby cried she took the money and run
and I get the chills when I think about her holding on
oh Johnny's coming he ain't too far behind

I'm on the run
running out of time
gotta keep running
gotta get cross the line
oh I gotta get away
only 40 more miles
oh johnny law ain't gonna take me down tonight

just wanna make my way to Mexico
meet my baby at a little drinking hole
oh we ain't got too far to go

I'm on the run
running out of time
gotta keep running
think I'm gonna lose my mind
oh I gotta get away
no I can't fall behind
oh johnny law ain't gonna take me down tonight
take me down tonight
he ain't too far behind

I'm on the run
oh I'm on the run
think I'm running out of time
he ain't too far behind



Afterglow
(MacDaniels)

oh I don't know how
to keep doing this now
the glow is gone
and I don't know

how it's supposed to go anymore
no I don't know
I don't know where to start

but I can hear I can hear I can hear
your voice inside my head

and I can see I can see I can see
the little twinkle in your eye
in my mind

well there will never be another soul like you
no there will never be another

now I can feel I can feel I can feel
the little twinkle in your eye

and I know and I know and I know
your glow is gonna always shine always shine

well there will never be another soul like you
no there will never be another
no there will never be another
soul like you



Machines
(Interdonato, MacDaniels)

oh let the machines oh let the machines
do it for you

oh let the machines oh let the machines
do it all for you
do your breathing for you
for you
for you

oh pretty soon oh pretty soon
they'll be coming to a town near you

they'll be taking your jobs
making the Monday more mundane
making the Monday more mundane

oh pretty soon they'll be taking your time
and taking your mind and soon they will own you

oh what a scene oh what a scene
when the machines move in
something that gives but takes from you

so let the machines oh let the machines
do your breathing for you
for you
for you

take this tube out my throat
get me back out on the road
get me far away from here
leave it all in my machines rear view mirror
my machines rear view mirror
my machines rear view mirror

don't let the machines
don't let the machines
do it all for you
oh do it for you
oh do it for you
for you
for you
