Escape
Awake and Dreaming Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's our home away from home
It's the little crack of sunlight in our, otherwise, dark world
and we listen to relate, not because we're afraid
Ya we're living for the moment and we don't want, we don't want it to end
Ooooh yeah, tonight we'll
And let the music take us through 'til sunrise
Ya it can't be wrong, when if feels so right
We'll fold the corner of this page in our lives
It's our soundtrack, It's our score
It's the music we adore
It's the one thing they can't take away from the sick and the poor
And we listen to feel safe, so we are not afraid
Ya we're living for the moment and we don't want, we don't want it to end
Ooooh yeah,
Ooooh yeah, don't stop to think about it
The song "Escape" by Awake and Dreaming is an anthem for those who find solace in music.

The song encourages listeners to live in the moment and to not allow the experience to end because of the joy and comfort it brings.
The lyrics also highlight the importance of music as a soundtrack and score to our lives. They describe how regardless of the circumstances, the one thing that cannot be taken away from the sick and the poor is our love for music. The lyrics suggest that listening to music helps to create a sense of safety and belonging, which provides a refuge from fear and uncertainty.

Too late, the melody is over
The joke seems to be on me cos I'm the one not laughing
Down here on the floor
Deflate, the mystery of living
In the most heartless fashion I could ever Imagine
No pretense of decor
Another place and time, without a great divide
And we could be flying deadly high
I'll sell my soul to dream you wide awake
Another place and time, without a warning sign
And we could be dying angel style
I'll sell my soul to dream you wide awake
I'll dream you... wide awake
With me, disaster finds a playfield
Love seems to draw dark, twisted pleasure tearing at me
Cos I can't let you go
Mercy, like water in a desert
Shine through my memory like jewelry in the sun
Where are you now
Another place and time...
I'll dream you... wide awake
It's like I'm racing to the sun, blindly face the blazing gun
Cos I'm afraid I will be left here without you
Like I'm racing not to run, give more when I have none
Cos I'm afraid I will be left here without you... wide awake
Another place and time...
I'll dream you... wide awake

I don't understand why this band is not more famous. They're so amazing.

@bhargavdas5524
This band with its every song crosses the upper limit of awesomeness. Out of the world !!! Probably one of the rarest bands whose songs have such a commendable like to dislike ratio.
@lonewolf4life88
Marko looks so different in each video, I never believe it's actually him
@yuria_nihilisten
Surely Poets could be more famous, but if they did, their music would probably change for worse to please the masses. I'm content they're faithful to their own, great style.
@sarahmalouf7567
not unless their style is what addicts the masses first! IMO, they should forget about the profit guarantee, it just makes a mess of everything! the purpose of buying music is to enjoy it.
@vincedprime
It's opposite
@katieedsallreamy4756
I love them just the way they are
