Great Escape
The Tug of Escape: Battling Dreams and Demands
Lyrics
I never dream, I've no escape
I feel unable to dream and find solace; there's no way out.
I take amphetamine, it keeps me awake
I use amphetamine to stay awake, but it creates a trap.
But it traps me in
The use of amphetamine confines me instead of setting me free.
So I drink for fear
To escape the trap, I resort to drinking due to the fear of overthinking.
I'll think too much
I fear deep contemplation, so I drink to avoid it.
And I'm already late
I am running out of time and already behind schedule.
For the great escape
Alluding to the desire for a significant escape or liberation.
To conquer all
The desire to overcome challenges is overwhelming.
It's too much for me
The challenges seem insurmountable, causing stress.
I wanted it all
I desired everything, but I'm struggling to stay on my feet.
I'm barely on my feet
Struggling to maintain stability or control.
I grasp the edge
I hold on desperately to a precarious situation.
But you know I'd rather
Despite the struggle, I would rather let go.
Just let go
A willingness to release control or expectations.
And I'm already late
Despite being late, there's a desire for liberation.
For the great escape
Reiterating the theme of pursuing a significant escape.
I like to be on time
I prefer punctuality but face challenges in achieving it.
I never worry
A lack of concern or worry, possibly due to a sense of urgency.
I hate to wait in line
Aversion to waiting in line, emphasizing impatience.
I'm always in a hurry
Always in a rush, reflecting a constant state of haste.
But I stick it out
Persisting despite difficulties to avoid missing an opportunity.
For fear I'll miss you
Fear of missing a significant moment or connection.
When you come around
Anxiously awaiting a meaningful encounter.
And I'm already late
Despite being behind schedule, the desire for escape persists.
For the great escape
Reiteration of being late for a notable escape or liberation.
