Escape My Grasp
Breaking Chains of Self: Aaron Hanania's Escape My Grasp Revels in Liberation
Lyrics
Did I say I needed you, up above and down below
Expressing uncertainty about the need for someone both in heavenly and earthly realms.
Listening to my words, escape my grasp and run away
Acknowledging that the speaker's words are causing someone to distance themselves, seeking escape.
Did i say i needed help, to run away from myself
Questioning the expression of needing assistance, possibly to distance oneself from personal struggles.
Locked away behind a gate hidden from your own fate
Describing a self-imposed isolation or confinement, hidden from the consequences of one's fate.
Every day, you and I venture away to our happy place
Every day, both individuals seek refuge in a mental or imagined happy place, running freely.
A place where we run so free
Describing the idealized place where they can run without constraints, emphasizing freedom.
Every day is the same, nothing new, nothing good
Expressing monotony and lack of positivity in daily life, a sense of stagnation.
You and I are ashamed for we cannot reclaim our faith
Feeling ashamed and unable to restore faith, possibly in oneself or each other.
Lost at sea, gone for good, the clock winds down, it's lost for good
Metaphorically lost at sea, a sense of permanence in being gone, with time running out.
Did I say I needed you, up above and down below
Repeating the uncertainty about needing someone both spiritually and physically.
Listening to my words, escape my grasp and run away
Reiterating that the speaker's words are causing someone to escape their influence and run away.
Did i say i needed help, to run away from myself
Revisiting the questioning of needing assistance, perhaps indicating internal struggles.
Locked away behind a gate hidden from your own fate
Reiterating the theme of being hidden from the consequences of one's fate, behind a metaphorical gate.
One two three, look at me, we are free, and we are done
Counting down and declaring freedom, suggesting the end of a difficult situation.
We live to see, the freeing day, the day that saved you and I
Expressing relief and anticipation of a day that brings liberation for both individuals.
