Escape From Reality Lyrics by James DH

Opus 17

2020

[Intro]
Shut me out of your life
I will push through this strife
Shut me down, I will crawl out that hole
Shut me out of your life
I will push through this strife
Shut me down, you won't do that no more
[Chorus]
Cruising away from you, so far
Flying away from chains and bars
Tap into venom, makes me calm
But never gives me joy and I'm so numb
Well, l'm starting to plan my escape
Heart is broke, so it can't break
Promise, I won't make that mistake
'Cause from reality, I'm planning my escape
[Verse 1]
I've got some shit in my head
I've got some things I've never said
I talk about my pain
Hope it goes away
Hope I don't stay around
Got a new wave, but it's not popping yet
Got a new tape, but I've got to wait a bit
I'm so done with staying cautious
I can't seem to learn around it
Help me out 'cause I'm not free
Sell me out and that's on me
But you did it again, now I'm so nauseous
Staying cautious so I don't fall again
[Pre-Chorus]
Shut me out of your life
I will push through this strife
Shut me down, I will crawl out that hole
Shut me out of your life
I will push through this strife
Shut me down, you won't do that no more
[Chorus]
Cruising away from you, so far
Flying away from chains and bars
Tap into venom, makes me calm
But never gives me joy and I'm so numb
Well, I'm starting to plan my escape
Heart is broke, so it can't break
Promise, I won't make that mistake
'Cause from reality, I'm planning my escape
[Verse 2]
What day is it?
Can't keep track or handle it
I go on to the next day, but some days are sickening
Sick of not having a good M.O
Little highs, yet bigger lows
I'm done, I'm so done
Don't know why I haven't given up, nah
Stress in my blood stream
And I'm losing the light
Don't know how to breathe, I cannot seem
To to figure out my life
I wanna retire but I'm seventeen
Haven't had a life, but it doesn't mean
That I have to live it to the fullest
I'll escape, but don't call me foolish, nah
Cut me down, but I'll grow back
Use me up right to the max
But I won't fall for your sick schemes
I know it seems that I have more to frack
[Bridge]
Shut me out of your life
I will push through this strife
Shut me down, I will crawl out that hole
Shut me out of your life
I will push through this strife
Shut me down, you won't do that no more
[Chorus]
Cruising away from you, so far
Flying away from chains and bars
Tap into venom, makes me calm
But never gives me joy and I'm so numb
Well, I'm starting to plan my escape
Heart is broke, so it can't break
Promise, I won't make that mistake
'Cause from reality, I'm planning my escape
