Escape

you went inside
I stayed in the car
the things you said to me
just went too far

I sat around
and wanted to go
what my reasons were
I still don't know
so I went down the road

and it felt so wrong
and I sang a song of escape
from (wash away) the rain

I stopped to dine
on nature's bread
I see that sign clearly in my head
as the sky turned red
I treaded
with feet of lead (full of dread)

and soon it turned dark
and you stopped
to save me
but sometimes you don't need to be saved

and why is it so hard
to keep your word
I'm always forced to stop
all that I hold to heart (and betray my cause)

and I felt so alone
as I braved through the cold
and tried to sing (wash) away the rain
