Escapism
Get me out of my head
Drag me out of my bed and make me
Move around to forget
There is time that needs to be wasted
To feel something instead
I will dive in my own delusions
Draping mirrors again
Safe inside of my own illusion
[Pre-Chorus]
It's the hope that kills you
[Chorus]
So I close my eyes 'til it all fades
And so I close my eyes, then it all fades
Yet I'm still aching, breaking, trying again
But I'll just close my eyes 'til it all fades
[Post-Chorus]
(Ah)
(Ah)
[Verse 2]
Stepping into the void
Even if it amounts to nothing
Silence is to avoid
Rеaching out to hold on to something
I wish I could enjoy
Worthless mеans of communicating
Words that only destroy
Leave me, feeling, fearing, oh
[Chorus]
I just close my eyes 'til it all fades
And so I close my eyes, then it all fades
Yet I'm still aching, breaking, trying again
But I'll just close my eyes 'til it all fades
[Bridge]
I can't help but feel
I can't tell what's real
It's the hope that kills you
[Chorus]
So I close my eyes 'til it all fades
And so I close my eyes, then it all fades
Yet I'm still aching, breaking, trying again
But I'll just close my eyes 'til it all fades
(Ah)
(Close my eyes 'til it all—)
(Ah)
(Close my eyes 'til it all—)
Yet I'm still aching, breaking, trying again (Ah)
But I'll just close my eyes 'til it all fades
