The Escapist

The Red Scare performing "The Escapist" live at Frankies.
Lyrics:

"The Escapist"
Somewhere livin free, is where I wanna be,
With nothin on my mind, no sense of time.
What else would we need?
We could live off rice, and gallons of cheap wine.

FALLIN OUT OF LOVE IS EASY TO DO
ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUVE GOT SOMEONE TO HELP YOU
YOU AND ME, WELL HIDE OUT HERE TOGETHER
UNDER THE SEA, IS WHERE WED SPEND FOREVER

Somewhere livin free, now that would be a time.
With nothin to my name, not one lonely dime.
What else would we need? No one can take away
These thoughts and feelings of mine.
Somewhere away from this, Is where I wanna run.
By the time you ask around, Ill already be gone.

NOW WERE SWIMMIN IN OBLIVION
SO SAFE AND SOUND, WERE FAR FROM ANYONE
BUT IF YOU WANNA COME AND FIND US
HERE IN OUR SHANGRI-LA, OUR LUNGS ARE FILLING
LOOKS LIKE WERE DROWNING WITH LUST

What else can I say? Why would I wanna stay,
When this place is like a shallow grave,
And Ill dig myself out someday.
Just try and keep up, this is my fantasy.
Arent you interested? I would be if I were me.
But you cant come, If your sails are at half mast.
Its not that I dont think youll make it,
I just know you wont last.

BUT YOU CANT COME
IF YOURE GONNA DRAG ME DOWN
