The Great Escape - Miles Away

A few years and things were fine

We rode our chances on a better life

We stood waiting for things to change

Constant source of disappointment

Can’t break the mould set in place

We should have known

Brought up with the stars in our eyes

False hope to disguise their lies

We’re always waiting for the happy ending

Just the start of our demise

You feel, fucking feel nothing

For all the years you ever put in

Just to fill the void and bridge the gaps

In this cold dark world

Fuck their world it never gave us a thing

Spits out lies that we always take in

And we’ve pushed our luck as far as we can go

Its time to make the great escape

Brought up with the stars in our eyes

False hope to disguise their lies

We’re always waiting for the happy ending

Just the start of our demise

That we must escape, we’ve got to make our great escape
