I became a cynic never saw it coming
Open up the blinds and let a little sun in
Put our heads together maybe find a way
Put a pin in all the chaos fight another day
It's so amazing where did the time go
Who pulled the rug out who gave the order
When did it all become so predictable
How do we escape
Escape
Escape
Lost on the road with no cell reception
Free for a time from tricks and distractions
Had to unplug before the thread became unraveled
Recovering from unnecessary battles
It's so amazing where did the time go
Who pulled the rug out who gave the order
When did it all become so predictable
How do we escape
Sleeping on shoreline as the water slowly rises
Dreaming of a place to escape from all the noise
Wading in the water as the sharks they slowly circle
Shouting out for rescue but it seems I've lost my voice
Holding the line against all the hate
That tries to determine all of our fates
And rolls through the streets in terrible waves
And will there be anything left to save
It's so amazing where did the time go
Who pulled the rug out who gave the order
When did it all become so predictable
How do we escape
Escape
Escape
Escape
Escape
