Song: Escape
Album: Light

Intro: Bm
       Bm G


Bm
Running from the park
Sleeping out in the rain
From falling down the drain
Feeling drained from the main
Mutilated disease disaster deficient and dead
Raging waves with no name
Raining pain distorted face

B5                   A5
Placing blame, hyper-judging all the time
        G5                         F#5    
Lost my mind on the train, running from the insane
         E5                               F#5
Children taught to blow their, brains out in the holy name
        D5                        E5             E5 D5 Bm
Running for fame where, everybody knows your name

Em
Running the same vein empty
                    G
shatters splattered nothing matters anyway, running for something to say
Bm
Looking for meaning the speech, running from a fray

Chorus:
G          F#m          Em
  It's the great escape
Bm              G
  Got to sneak away
F#m               Em             Bm
  When they look away we'll just fade away
G        F#m           Em
  Carry me in your memory
Bm                  G
  If I should pass away 
F#m                   F#  Bm
  Before the break of day

G F#m Em Bm


B5                  A5      
Like the light life happy clouds fluff
     G5
Hazy rice sunny days puff
F#5                           E5
Fly a kite afraid to face the night
                F#5
What if I can't make it right
          D5
The sword cuts both ways, night and day

Bm
Joy that goes away, things seem to sway
        Em
Nothing stays the same
G
Even in this madness we will survive
Bm
Even in this madness we will survive

Chorus

Bm
Running through the forest and I'm running through the woods
Running my whole life running like I should
Em
Running for survival, running from the rifle
Bm
Running for the Bible blood libels and false idols

Bm
Craziness inside me
Afraid to pick through the bushes and see
Closed off bogged down reality
Bind barbed wire with no key

Running Running

Chorus

G F#m Em Bm x2
