Escapism

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Get me out of my head Drag me out of my bed and make me Move around to forget There is time that needs to be wasted To feel something instead I will dive in my own delusions Draping mirrors again Safe inside of my own illusion [Pre-Chorus] It's the hope that kills you [Chorus] So I close my eyes 'til it all fades And so I close my eyes, then it all fades Yet I'm still aching, breaking, trying again But I'll just close my eyes 'til it all fades [Post-Chorus] (Ah) (Ah) [Verse 2] Stepping into the void Even if it amounts to nothing Silence is to avoid Rеaching out to hold on to something I wish I could enjoy Worthless mеans of communicating Words that only destroy Leave me feeling, fearing, oh [Chorus] I just close my eyes 'til it all fades And so I close my eyes, then it all fades Yet I'm still aching, breaking, trying again But I'll just close my eyes 'til it all fades [Bridge] I can't help but feel I can't tell what's real It's the hope that kills you [Chorus] So I close my eyes 'til it all fades And so I close my eyes, then it all fades Yet I'm still aching, breaking, trying again But I'll just close my eyes 'til it all fades (Ah) (Close my eyes 'til it all—) (Ah) (Close my eyes 'til it all—) Yet I'm still aching, breaking, trying again (Ah) But I'll just close my eyes 'til it all fades
