My Great Escape

All the pretty lights Shooting down the other lane Tires right on the line White knuckles on the wheel Eyes like tunnels Highway heart Chasing through the rain Race the dawn to beat the dark Yeah, that would be the day Fare you well My great escape Bitter bullet Broken cage My fairy tale All those pretty lights Used to all burn just for me A bubble on your tide My blood your gasoline But I'm tired of running Highway heart Chasing my own tail Race the dawn to beat the dark You'll never see the day Fare you well My great escape Bitter bullet Torn up page My paper plane I paid you well Keep the change Bitter bullet Come on, give me one more taste All I wanted was to blow up Loud enough for them to hear All I needed was something to make it real All I wanted was to burn out Bright enough for them to see me All I needed was something to disappear So fare you well My great escape Bitter bullet Sweet mistake No happy ending The game is made And it's getting late now I quit, you won But, I'm the one who gets away
