Escape
You believe the doors are locked
And the walls are closing in
You believe your world is rocked
Can't remember where you've been
A light streaks through the darkness
It's been there all this time
It's calling you to grab its tail
To show you not to fear the fail
And you reach up toward the sky
With no doubt or wonder why
And the spark that's in your eye
Is what says that you can fly
You dream there's more than this
As you wait for evidence
You worry what you'll miss
You dream for one more chance
That light still pierces through the night
Reminds you that it's there
It shakes you out of restless sleep
To escape what you don't have to keep
And you reach up toward the sky
With no doubt or wonder why
And that spark's still in your eye
Now it's time for you to fly
