Escapist lyrics

Who's there knocking at my window?

The owl and the Dead Boy

This night whispers my name

All the dying children

Virgin snow beneath my feet

Painting the world in white

I tread the way and lose myself into a tale

Come hell or high water

My search will go on

Clayborn Voyage without an end

A nightingale in a golden cage

That's me locked inside reality's maze

Come someone make my heavy heart light

Come undone bring me back to life

A nightingale in a golden cage

That's me locked inside reality's maze

Come someone make my heavy heart light

It all starts with a lullaby

Journey homeward bound

A sound of a dolphin calling

Tearing off the mask of man

The Tower my sole guide

This is who I am

Escapist, paradise seeker

Farewell now time to fly

Out of sight, out of time, away from all lies

A nightingale in a golden cage

That's me locked inside reality's maze

A nightingale in a golden cage

That's me locked inside reality's maze

Come someone make my heavy heart light

Come undone bring me back to life

A nightingale in a golden cage

That's me locked inside reality's maze

Come someone make my heavy heart light

It all starts with a lullaby

A nightingale in a golden cage

That's me locked inside reality's maze

Come someone make my heavy heart light

Come undone bring me back to life

A nightingale...

In a golden cage...
