My Escape
My chance to get away
This distraction
This place I like to stay
Deep in the woods
And high in the trees
A place that no body can see
The voices come out
I can't let them win
The voices, they shout
But I don't let them in
Their words crawl through my brain
And sink into my head
The words speak of pain
And whisper secrets of the dead
The branches are long
And they surround me
Blocking out the voices
All around me
Please don't take off the headphones
Don't take me away from my paradise
Because if you do
My heart will only turn to ice.
