My great escape is about to begin again My plight here is dire If I don’t find a way Then the only option is To fight fire with fire. Guess I’m just tired of always having to explain Why it’s just me and only me who is to blame.

Say what you want to me Unkind and amplified Cry or bat those eyes You’ll never change my mind. Say what you want of me I’ve got an axe to grind I aced the test of time Now, kindly step aside.

My great escape Is reminding me from within We’ve both had it out and up to here. You know, I just tired of always living in your shadow When really I’m fine to make this all up as I go.

Say what you want to me Unkind and amplified Cry or bat those eyes You’ll never change my mind. Say what you want of me I’ve got an axe to grind I aced the test of time Now, kindly step aside.

You know, I just tired of always living in your shadow Guess I’m just tired of living in your shadow Fine to make this all up as I go…

Say what you want to me Unkind and amplified Cry or bat those eyes You’ll never change my mind My Great escape! My great escape! I thank you for your time Now, kindly step aside.
