One Day I Will Escape

from Goodbye I'm Leaving by The living Bird Calls

/

lyrics

I was a kid when I found out my heart was made of fire
Breaking bones and burning leaves making waves in human seeds
Can it be the one I need is somewhere in here hurting me?

Look inside my bloodshot eyes, I’m alive, but barely trying
Come to grips with what you’ve lost then find out it was never gone
But hiding from you all along and now you’re weak and it is strong

And one day I will escape
With my hands on the mouth of the great white sea, I’ll escape
And you will escape from me

I was a mess of stupid bets, borrowed lies, and old regrets
Sleeping in the same old sheets that suck the dreams right out of sleep
Can it be the things I need is somewhere in here hurting me?

Look into the graveyard moon, there’s big black crows surrounding you
The gray October sky appears to welcome death like trumpeters
I came to wash away the years and found myself alone back here

But one day I will escape
With my hands over the eyes of the great white sea, I’ll escape
And you will escape from me
