Escape Route

I've got a life out there somewhere, it's waiting

Lined with palmtrees and only new faces

If I could look past the present and get there

Well baby it's worth the 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

And that's what's going on, that's what's going on



Cross the state line and called out a warning

Not too long, now I'll breathe California

Paid my dues and I'll try to be loyal

But now I'm done with all that



Where I'm going is everyone's story



We want you left, we're left to start over

It's not a question of who are we really

It's who we wanna be



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



All that's in between, a brand new life and I this 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
