The Art of Escape Lyrics by Mon Voyage

The Hero Has No Friends.

2023

[Verse 1]
Back against the wall
Soaked in chemicals
Fight, or flight, or fall
And everybody’s watching
Dance with death and life
Always out of time
I stoop so low just to get high
How do you plan to stop me?
[Pre-Chorus]
I can’t wait to see the way you sweat
Even with your hands around my neck
[Chorus]
Better hold me tight
Better lock me down
Better sleep with one eye open
I don’t need to make a sound
‘Cause I know my way
I’ve been here before
You’re a smooth-talk villain
With a five-star prison
But I’ll still find the door
[Verse 2]
Footsteps in the hall
March, then run, then crawl
No it’s not their fault
They never saw this coming
And I’m holding back my laughter
After all this time you thought you had me pinned
Now I’m slipping out the air vent, careless
They’re left with nothing but a memory
Of victory that never could have been
And I’m in the wind
[Chorus]
Better hold me tight
Better lock me down
Better sleep with one eye open
I don’t need to make a sound
‘Cause I know my way
I’ve been here before
You’re a smooth-talk villain
With a five-star prison
But I’ll still find the door
[Bridge]
This is the art of escape
Can’t put me back in my cage, no, no
Already out of the state
This is the art
This is the art of escape
[Outro]
You’re a smooth-talk villain
With a five-star prison
But I’ll still find the door
