Lyrics
Running from the park
Sleeping out in the rain
From falling down the drain
Feeling drained from the main
Mutilated disease disaster deficient and dead
Raging waves with no name
Raining pain distorted face
Placing blame
Hyper-judging all the time
Lost my mind on the train
Running from the insane
Children taught to blow their brains out in the holy name
Running for fame where everybody knows your name
Running the same vein empty shatters
splattered nothing matters anyway
Running for something to say
Looking for meaning the speech
Running from a fray
It's the great escape
Got to sneak away
When they look away we'll just fade away
Carry me in your memory
If I should pass away before the break of day
Like the light life happy clouds fluff
Hazy rice sunny days puff fly a kite afraid to face the night
What if I can't make it right
The sword cuts both ways
Night and day
Joy that goes away
Things seem to sway
Nothing stays the same
Even in this madness we will survive
Even in this madness we will survive
It's the great escape
Got to sneak away
When they look away we'll just fade away
Carry me in your memory
If I should pass away before the break of day
Running through the forest and I'm running through the woods
Running my whole life running like I should
Running for survival
Running from the rifle
Running for the Bible blood libels and false idols
Craziness inside me
Afraid to pick through the bushes and see
Closed off bogged down reality
Bind barbed wire with no key
Running
Running
It's the great escape
Got to sneak away
When they look away we'll just fade away
Carry me in your memory
If I should pass away before the break of day
