Escape
Ricardo Padua feat. Hatsune Miku Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Stuck inside this cell that you created for me
I've tried to escape a million times
But you presence still keeps me here
I knew my own heart
And you just broke my heart
I don't believe you please don't come around
Once more x4
I can't see you here and everything goes pitch black
If I could turn back time on this clock
I'd take back the sun you took
I knew my own heart
And you just broke my heart
I don't believe you please don't come around
Once more x4
(I knew my own heart)
(I don't believe you please don't come around)
(Once more x4)

Despite their efforts to escape, the presence of their partner keeps them rooted in place.
The chorus of the song contains a heartbreaking plea, as the singer reveals that their partner has broken their heart and they can no longer bear to be in their presence. They express their desire for their partner to leave them alone and not try to come back. The second verse continues this theme of being unable to move on from the relationship, as the singer describes how every attempt to move forward ends in darkness and despair.
