Marillion - Great Escape Lyrics
Heading for the great escapeHeading for the raveHeading for the permanent holidayHeading for the winter tripHeading for the slideHeading for the dignified walk awayHeading for the open roadGoodbye to all thatHeading for the automatic overloadStanding in the open boatStanding in the swingWaiting for the ringing and the bright lightWaiting to be recognisedQuiet applause will doThey shower you with flowers when they bury youYou're holding on, you're holding on ...I. The Last of YouJust when I thought I'd seen the last of youYou come here scratchin' at my doorYour pain and anger's in the howling darkOf every corridor I walkSo tell me more about the love that you rejectedTell me more about the trust you disrespectedI still don't know, why did you hurt the very oneWhy did you hurt the very oneThat you should have protected?Heading for the great escapeHeading for the raveHeading for the permanent holidayHeading for the high cloud-nineHeaven number sevenHeading for the long goodbyeUncurl the fingers that holdSummon the strength to let goOut of the tired worldOut of the upsetInto the sunset
