Lyrics Tangled in the Great Escape - Pierce the Veil feat. Jason Butler

Well don't you say that I had a part of it
Guess we'll never know or would...
Oh, would you say that I had a part of it
Well I guess we'll never know.
Constant recovery.
I see you choke and it takes my breath away.
But all is good, we close our eyes
They all accept the lie.
So bury what you are outside.
Brother, promise you won't leave me.
I know you're tortured within
Your eyes look hungry again.
But I'll never wander, my friend.
Will somebody believe this is suicide?
Am I the only one that thinks that you should stay alive?
Oh, I became the shame that you backed up on the ropes
To arm yourself and hide.
And so I scream, "Mayday, I'm in trouble. Send somebody on the double."
Scratching at the floor inside my mind
They all accept the lie
So bury what you are outside
Brother, please don't be afraid of me.
I know you're tortured within
And your eyes look hungry again
But I'll never wander, my friend.
I let you down
And I started to run
Never meant to be your pain
What have I become?
Show me, show me the way back
Show me the way back home.
I know you're tortured within
Your eyes look hungry again
But I'll never wander, my friend
No, I'll never wander again
This is not what I want.
But is now what I need
This is not what I want
But is now what I need
This is not what I want.
But now is what I need.
Is not what I want
But now is what I need.
Can I just have one more taste?
Just to make it through the day
You're tangled
You're tangled in the great escape
Great escape, oh
I never meant to hurt nobody, no no, yeah
I never meant to hurt you, no no no no
I only meant to do this to myself, to myself, to myself
Great escape
Great escape
Great escape
Oh, great escape
Let me out of this
Yeah, let me out of this, yeah.
