"Escape"

I swear it felt like just the two of us

Me, you and the Universe

When we lay there wrapped up in each other's arms.

It felt so safe and warm

Far away and safe from harm

When we both lay there, naked in the dark.

I used to think it was fate

But that was my mistake

Because I know you just used me to escape.

I never questioned you once, I was blind.

You even gave me your heart; said it was mine

While we lay there wrapped up in each other's arms.

But your heart was hollow

And there's no way I would follow

While you you led me by the hand into the dark.

That's why I had to run away.

Not gonna lie, sometimes I really wish I'd stayed.

'Cause when I looked into your eyes the whole world fell away.

But this time it was my turn to escape.
