escape

trapped in in the past
my memories still fresh
my life is going to fast
eating at my soul. grabbing at my flesh
I just need to escape

tears trickle down
trying to break out of my shell
never a smile, always a frown
Am I in living hell?
I just need to escape

I'm not the strongest
weak in muscle, not in heart
living up to expectations will take me the longest
slowly by body starts to fall apart
I just need to escape

what do you need to escape from?
whether emotions, physic, or mentally
we all need to escape each and everyone
either on purpose or accidentally
we all need to escape
