ESCAPE

SOMETIMES WE WORRY WHEN WE'RE ALL ALONE
THAT LIFE JUST ISN'T FAIR.
BUT THERE'S A PLACE YOU CAN ESCAPE
YOUR THOUGHTS CAN TAKE YOU THERE.

IT'S DEEP INSIDE THE CORNERS OF YOUR MIND
RIGHT WHERE YOU REALLY ARE.
THE HOPE, THE JOY AND LOVE YOU LOST
YOU'LL SEE IT DIDN'T GO FAR.

IT'S RIGHT AROUND THAT SADNESS
THAT CREPT IN WHEN YOU DIDN'T SEE.
IT'S RIGHT BEHIND THAT HOPELESSNESS
THAT JUST WON'T LET YOU BE.

SO GATHER UP ALL THE STRENGTH YOU HAVE
AND MAKE YOUR LIFE WORTHWHILE.
LET THE LOVE IN YOUR HEART AND THE GOODNESS INSIDE
COME THROUGH IN THE WARM OF YOUR SMILE.
