My Sweetest Escape

In my life and times been betrayed and been lied to used everything just to get me by the nights, that were so cold just wanted to let go, and fade away looking for that sweet escape, but always thinking maybe im to late. And ive done things that im not proud of no im far from an angel, but did i really deserve those i cared for to let me down again? What's so wrong with wanting a family? They just wanted to break me through to the skin. Leave me here just like the animal you treated me like to begin with. Seems like this might be my fate. All my life i always wanted to feel the sweetest escape in the arms of someone who would look me in the face Someone who would understand that my plan was to get away from this place. All my life i always wanted to feel the sweetest escape in the arms of someone who could look me in the face Someone who would understand that where i am bad memories are hard to erase. All i need is your Sweetest Escape. People used to break me down, not with fists but with there words till i was lying ill, fatally bleeding unto the floor. But as soon as you entered my life everything changed, and nothing felt painful anymore. As you took my hand, and led me out of darknesses door. And with you there's finally hope a new place i know i can cope and be here, not scared of being pushed back down, broken down to my core. And i know you'd never hurt me because i know that's just not you In the darkness i just couldn't see until the love you shined led me right to you. All my life i always wanted to feel the sweetest escape in the arms of someone who would look me in the face Someone who would understand that my plan was to get away from this place. All my life i always wanted to feel the sweetest escape in the arms of someone who could look me in the face Someone who would understand that where i am bad memories are hard to erase. All i need is your Sweetest Escape.
