Escape Route

I've got a life out there somewhere
It's waiting
Lined with palm trees and only new faces
If I could look past the present and get there
Well baby, it's worth a shot


Just enough time to plan an escape route
I put my map on the wall in the basement
Not quite a victory to run from your problems
But it's the only plan that I got
It's the only plan that I got


And if you try to find me now


Oh
Oh oh oh!


I'm in all the echoes that have faded out
So... I'm moving on
'Cause I just want to feel for once that I belong
That's what's going on
That's what's going on


Crossed the state line and called out a warning
Not too long now, I'll breathe California
Paid my dues and I tried to be loyal
But now I'm done with all that
Where I'm going is everyone's story


We want new lives
We love to start over


It's not a question of who are we really
It's who we want to be


And if you try to find me now


Oh
Oh oh!


I'm in all the echoes that have faded out
So... I'm moving on
'Cause I just want to feel for once that I belong
And that's what's going on


All that's in between
A brand new life and I is time
But time has not been kind.
It's not been kind to me.
It's winding backwards.


Time has not been kind.
It's crawling by...
So...
Slowly..


And if you try to find me now


Oh
Oh oh oh!


I'm in all the echoes that have faded out
So... I'm moving on
'Cause I just want to feel for once that I belong
And that's what's going on
And if you try to find me now


Oh
Oh oh oh


I'm in all the echoes that have faded out
So... I'm moving on
'Cause I just want to feel for once that I belong
And that's what's going on
