Can'T Escape
I’m breaking free
you rope me in
I’m finally leaving
you lock me in
there’s no escape
I cannot win
I’m overpowered by your might
your eyes pierce my soul
you make me feel whole
even if the feeling’s brief
you keep bringing me in
your smile lies
but after a thousand tries
I’m still here with you
you look so sweet
you’re so discreet
everything I could never have
a dream come true
I’m sitting here thinking of you
and all the promises you’ll never keep
all the hearts you’ll break
all the lives you’ll take
all the time you’ll steal
all the wounds you’ll never heal
