Would you gone me through all of this again
Don't let me slip away
I need you here till the very end
So stay here with me
There's so much love and you're smile when i look at your face
And i'm here to stay
You're my first and my last
Loving you my scape
So tell me you'll be right here with me
Hearing your voice is like hearing an angel sing
Through the good and bad and all in between
You're the one i want and the one i need
And i know
You told me to live each day
To live each day like it's my last
I won't make you turn away
So come with me and never look backAfter all that we've been through
You are still by my side and i'm grateful
You there and i, i love you
You're my best friend and i want you to know i care
So tell me you'll be right here with me
Hearing your voice is like hearing an angel sing
Through the good and bad and all in between
You're the one i want and the one i need
And i know
So this is how we planned it knowing we won't be alone
And this is how it's supposed to be when you're with all alone
So tell me you'll be right here with me
Hearing your voice is like hearing an angel sing
Through the good and bad and all in between
You're the one i want and the one i need
And i know
In Ravenscode's song "My Escape," the lyrics express a deep sense of gratitude and love towards their partner. The first stanza asks if the partner would be willing to stick by through any difficulties and not let the singer "slip away." They need their partner to stay with them until the very end. The chorus describes the magnitude of the love that the singer has for their partner, who is their "first and last" and their "escape." Hearing their partner's voice is compared to hearing an angel sing, and it is clear that the partner is the one the singer wants and needs. The second stanza reinforces the love and closeness between the two, with the singer grateful for their partner's enduring presence in their life. The final chorus brings everything together, with the singer seeing their relationship with their partner as a planned and intended union that will continue on together in the future.
One interesting fact about the song is that it was used as part of a video montage for the television show "Dancing with the Stars" in 2015. Another is that it was produced by the Canadian musician Dan Brodbeck, who has worked with several well-known acts such as Dolores O'Riordan and The Cranberries. The song was also given a music video, which features the band performing the song in a forest with a storyline involving a couple running away from an unknown danger. "My Escape" was included on Ravenscode's debut album "District of Broken Hope" and was one of the most popular tracks on the album. The band cites influences such as Three Days Grace and Breaking Benjamin for their sound, which is a blend of alternative rock and post-grunge.
