The Great Escape

A blind man in a black room Hiding his head in the clouds for years The enemy of reason Who does not believe in tears He's been trying to surface Now it's sink or float Ruler of the oceans In a paper boat He's been trying to run away One part charming Two parts obnoxious He was welcomed like A corpse on a flight He seeks the The beauty of a blank page Through the thorns To the stars and the light He's been trying to surface Now it's sink or float Ruler of the oceans In a paper boat He's been trying to run away He's been dying to run away Running wild Running blind Running backwards Hands tied behind his back Oh no He told you some lies But he's been telling the truth Yeah
