Just escape

My old man

He kicked me out

When I told him I lived this way

I lived this way, I lived this way

I lived this way

He doesn't own me

Just escape

Arrows were falling

The black rinse align your face

Like a deer drinking water in a picture frame

I swear to god I've seen those eyes

The back of my lids when closing mine

With clasped hands we shake it out

We shake it out

Lay some boots and we walk away

I felt slightly connect to him

And said now boy, now you own me

Arrows were falling

Yeah, yeah

He doesn't sleep

So in truth he never wakes up

Another day rushing to his death

Out of breath on the treadmill of the famous

He makes mistakes tells stories to his paintbrush

And when the world finally sees his art

He wishes that he never would have made it

Just escape, just escape ricochets

And eclipses faith living in a city

With a grey umbrella over your shoulders

And you're becoming suffocated by the weight

Can't hit those breaks

This is what you wanted, huh

But you got it all in vein cause you forgot who you are

Right as the world learned your name it goes

Arrows were falling

Let me ash my issues

Ashtray in this asphalt

American spirits

Black coffee, conversations and a passport

When god gives you everything, everything

That you ever asked for and it still looks a bit different

Then when you pictured it on that back porch

And I'm gone world travellet all I got is my songs

When the nights start blending into one another

And I don't recall Tom Petty in this b***h

All I wanna do is free fall

Yeah free fall

And I'm so caught up

I'm caught up, I'm caught up

And I'm so tired, swore that I wouldn't

Stare into the light

And guess who tried it

**** I'm blinded by this lime light

This lime light, it's all night, it's all day

These bright lights, these bright lights

Once you turn 'em on

You can't walk away, don't die here

Don't die here

I came too far, I'm too great

But I'm too scared and I'm too afraid

Afraid to stare this world into it's face

I'm almost done, I'm driving lost

My eyelids closed, light turns to gret

The cameras off, the show is over

You close the curtains and just escape

Arrows were falling

I live this way

Just escape
