Lyrics

The great escape

Paper bags and plastic hearts
All are belongings in shopping carts
Its goodbye
But we got one more night
Lets get drunk and ride around
And make peace with an empty town
We can make it right

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We wont hear a word they say
They dont know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
Cause we are finally free tonight

Tonight will change our lives
Its so good to be by your side
And we'll cry
We wont give up the fight
We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs
Theyll think its just cause were young
We'll feel so alive

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
Well make the great escape
We wont hear a word they say
They dont know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
Cause we are finally free today
All of the wasted time
The hours that were left behind
The answers that well never find
They dont mean a thing tonight

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We wont hear a word they say
They dont know us anyway

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We wont hear a word they say
They dont know us anyway
Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We wont hear a word they say
They dont know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
Cause we are finally free tonight
