My Escape
Escape from the Summer of Lost Love: Unveiling Emotions in Jack Rocco's 'My Escape'
Lyrics
You were the one, who healed my wounds
You were the one who helped me recover from my emotional wounds.
Fun in the sun, doesn't balance the two
Happiness in enjoyable moments doesn't make up for or solve the conflicting emotions I'm experiencing.
You fed on my pain one two many times
You took advantage of my pain too many times.
Thought I'd stay the same but my feelings have died
I thought I would remain unchanged, but my emotions have faded away.
I know someone who can fix me
I believe there's someone who can help or mend me.
I know I'm not who you want me to be
I understand that I'm not meeting your expectations or desires.
Oh I know, Im not like the others
I'm different from the rest, not similar to others.
Lets go, lets escape from the summer
Let's escape the current situation or season, perhaps metaphorically.
And keep our secrets
Let's keep our shared confidences or undisclosed information.
If you mean it
If your intentions are genuine or sincere.
Oh I know, that I tend to wonder
I tend to wander or stray in my thoughts or actions.
I hope, that you find another
I wish for you to find someone else.
And don't hurt like me
I hope they don't experience the same hurt I did.
Though that's not likely
Though it's improbable or unlikely.
Im not like the others
Reiterating that I'm different from others.
I shut you out, like im shutting your blinds
I've shut you out of my life, much like closing blinds, blocking you.
You thought I was worth it, but baby your blind
You believed I was worth it, but you couldn't see clearly.
I thought you were the one for me
I believed you were the perfect match for me.
Now I'm holding onto memories that keep saying
Now I cling to memories that remind me of this belief.
Oh I know, Im not like the others
Reiterating that I'm unlike others and suggesting an escape from the current situation.
Lets go, lets escape from the summer
Similar to line 8, a desire to escape the current circumstances.
And keep our secrets
To maintain our shared secrets or undisclosed information.
If you mean it
On condition that your intentions are sincere.
Oh I know, that I tend to wonder
I often find myself drifting in thoughts or actions.
I hope, that you find another
I wish for you to find someone else.
And don't hurt like me
I hope they don't experience the same hurt I did.
Though that's not likely
Reiterating the improbability of someone else avoiding the pain I went through.
