Great Escape
Finding Redemption: Moonfables' Great Escape from Darkness
Lyrics
I always looked for God
I have always sought a higher power or meaning, symbolized by God.
But I found the devil
Instead, I discovered negative influences or struggles, represented by the devil.
In every place I went
In every place I traveled or experienced, I encountered challenges and difficulties.
And all the time I spent
The time I invested was filled with hardships and obstacles.
I always looked for God
Despite the challenges, I continued my search for meaning or purpose in God.
But I found the bottle
However, I found solace or escape in the bottle, possibly indicating alcohol as a coping mechanism.
To make my great escape
To overcome my struggles, I resorted to making a significant escape, possibly through alcohol.
And turn and walk away
I decided to turn away from my problems and walk away from them.
Oo, lift your head
