The Great Escape

V1 - You wouldn't believe how long it's bee since I felt so alive.
Lately, something's stirring me, so I wanna live long and thrive.
It seems there is a point to life, I'm staring at my goal.
I want to see the light again, like a diamond in the coal.

Chorus - I am escaping the blinkers of my mind
I am escaping from the shackles of the life I left behind.

V2 - I thought that, that was it and now the countdown had begun.
But suddenly I find important work that must be done.
The smaller that the World becomes the further I can go.
I see beyond the safety net and I am letting go.

Chorus.

V3 - I must have tried 1,000 ways to get myself ahead.
I always seem to chicken out with one more skin to shed.
But now the ideas bounce around, the ballpark opens up
I.m going for a touchdown and I'll take the winner's cup.

Chorus.
