An Escape

Oh hope, where have you gone?
And will you ever come back to me completely?
All the holes I've bleed from
Forcing everyone around my heart to leave me

I could tell there was nothing left for us
When you turned, oh, you turned your back
But in the arms of another, you were crying under the covers
For a way to escape, to escape

Oh God, where have I gone?
And will I ever get the ones I tell to believe me?
All the things I have done
To keep those around from learning to read me

I could tell there was nothing left for us
When you turned, oh, you turned your back
But in the arms of another, you were crying under the covers
For a way to escape, to escape

So I guess I'm pressing on without you
I hope it goes the way I want to
But nothing ever seems like it does
And I don't believe a single word I say
Don't believe a single word I say

I could tell there was nothing left for us
When you turned, oh, you turned your back
But in the arms of another, you were crying under the covers
For a way to escape, to escape
