what happened to the great escape

we've ended up on the merry go round

now all we have are shadows on the wall

we could've had it all

when did life get in the way

striking matches in the rain

now there’s only me and you

living on this death end avenue

why don't we get away

out of this town

shake all those yesterdays

they’re dragging us down

there’s nothing left around here for you and I

All the signs tell me to get away

We should just get away

What happened to the love we made

We used to give it all

When did life get in the way

Throwing water on the flames

Now there’s only me and you

Living on this death end avenue

So why don't we get away

Out of this town

Shake all those yesterdays

They’re dragging us down

There’s nothing left around here for you and I

All the signs tell me to get away

We should just get away

Why don't we get away

Out of this town

Shake all those yesterdays

They’re dragging us down

There’s nothing left around here for you and I

So why don't we get away

Out of this town

There’s nothing left around here for you and I

All the signs tell me to get away

We should just get away
