Lyrics

The Greatest Escape

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You’re the blue note

You are sad like a melody

In minor key

You sway, you float

For whenever you touch the ground

It drags you down

If I could

I’d make your heart unbroken

I’d make these words unspoken

It’s the greatest escape

It’s between you, me and the sea

You forsake me

For the ones that we left behind

They left you blind

Sometimes it seems

Like you forgot the misery

I’d set you free but you

You miss the thrill of violence

Thank me with utter silence

For taking you away

It’s the greatest escape

It’s between you me and the sea

It’s the greatest escape

Cut through the highest waves

Finding your soul a haven

Water the garden over your grave
