FireEscapes

作曲 : Anton Engdahl/Winona Oak/Sam Merrifield

I never used to be the one to lose control

Paranoid thoughts when I’m on my own

I don’t wanna be the one to check your phone

But lately I

I can only sleep when my bags are packed

Only feel myself when I overreact

Why am I safer when I’m feeling sad

It’s like I keep on hurting people just to stop them hurting me back

I keep on sabotaging myself till I’m all that I have

Oh I wish there was something you could say

But I’ve seen how love is made

All the beauty and the pain

I’m still wearing my bullet proof vest

On the inside of my chest

Oh I hate that I’m this way

But I’ve seen how love can change

That’s why I keep on building fire escapes

Mmm

Mmm

That’s why I keep on building fire escapes

I keep on mis-reading your undertones

Always second guessing when I’m alone

Keep my feelings hidden till they overflow

Almost like I’ve

Forgotten how it feels to be vulnerable

Never let myself get too comfortable

Never been good at letting go

It’s like I keep on hurting people just to stop them hurting me back

I keep on sabotaging myself till I’m all that I have

Oh I wish there was something you could say

But I’ve seen how love is made

All the beauty and the pain

I’m still wearing my bullet proof vest

On the inside of my chest

Oh I hate that I’m this way

But I’ve seen how love can change

That’s why I keep on building fire escapes

So I how do I, how do I, get out of this

Get out of this, this time

So I how do I, how do I, get out of this

Get out of this, this time

That’s why I keep on building fire escapes
