Escape

"Escape"

I was down in the gloom, wasting life away
Wishing like hell, that there was somewhere, anywhere else to go today
And then I heard a faint cry sear across the sky
It welled my heart so full of joy that I thought I might die

"Its time to beleive in miracles" is what the voice said
"You will be taken care of, the darkness is all in your head"
And I was taken aback, I was in shock
I felt like the special sheep that got to leave the flock

As I stood there listening to that celestial voice
I could feel the tears stream down my eyes making them moist
The angelic hand lifted me from the fog
And told me I would never again be forced into the bog

"Its time to believe in miracles" is what the voice said
"You will be taken care of the darkness is all in your head"
And I was taken aback, I was in shock
I felt like the special sheep that got to leave the flock

And then I woke up violently, disoriented, disenchanted and confused
It seems I was the victim of someone's horrid joke, I hope they are amused
But still all is not lost, for some reason I'm not sure why
I can still faintly hear that beautiful, unearthly cry

"Its time to believe in miracles" is what the voice said
"You will be taken care of the darkness is all in your head"
And I was taken aback, I was in shock
I felt like the special sheep that got to leave the flock
