Escape
The Point A Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Taking on the day
Waiting to escape
The thoughts
That keeps me here today
Cutting back the time
Waiting for your light
To show
And lead me through the day

And I wonder now
Will you be there too?
With all the time
I though of you
'Cause I need you more
I need you more than that

Too late, my friend
To take it all today
And to relate on my time
You could say that
I could hope to turn back to your way
Believing where I'd run
Today

Taking back the day
Waiting to escape
The ones
Who take it all away?
Cutting back through time
To call
And take me far away

Taking on the day
Waiting to escape
And leave it all today
Turning back the time
Waiting for the sign

To fall
And take me on my way
