Escapism Lyrics

There it goes again

It goes on and on, and again

And it does seem to give me pause

That my intentions are regarded again

As a sure-fire way to miss the final cause

Is so abstract and now it's at it again

And again, and it goes, and it goes

Here we are again

This goes on and on, and again

But nothing seems to give me pause

'Cause that's my ecstasy returning again

As a simple answer to the final cause

And now that mystery is fading again

And again and it goes, and it goes

It's not the same as it was

It's not the same, though it will be

It's not fair

Don't go there she said

'Cause it's not the same as it was

Miseries unfold

Something's coming on

To me and it does obfuscate the thoughts

The second guesses and you oughts

To know better, better

I know, better

But I don't think I care

Feel the weight off my shoulders

Feel the wind in my hair

I'm not gonna get older

But I don't think I care

All those black shattered windows

Let that breeze come on through

Whilst I'm hopelessly waiting

For that image of you

To reappear

The inevitable dread lingers around and around

The never-ending thoughts and peace is nowhere to be found

But If the optimists do gather well in for a penny in for a pound

The laughs and the tears, and sinners not making a sound

And they will clap and make you want it while your confidence is running aground

There's charlatans, and trickeries abound

Oh well a, oh well a

'Cause I don't think I care

Feel the weight off my shoulders

Feel the wind in my hair

I'm not gonna get older

But I don't think I care

All those black shattered windows

Let that breeze come on through

Whilst I'm hopelessly waiting

For that image of you

To reappear
