Escape
DEER FROM SPACE Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I traveled the cosmos with a smile
Devoured the knowledge of space and time

I run
I hide
I kept my hope inside

Crashed into this barren land
Full of things I first called ""friends""

I fear
I try
To keep my hope inside

They start to change like day and night
So ignorant yet so full of pride

I love
I hate
A mixture they create

I need to run
I need to escape
I need to get out of this place

I run
I hide
I live
I die
I give
I take
I cry

I need to run
I need to escape
I need to get out of this place

I fear
I try
I fall




Goodbye..
I get up still theyI lie..
