"The Great Escape" lyrics

"The Great Escape"

I hear scary voices and they just won't leave me be
Telling me "It's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay"

It's hard to find the words to say
'Cause all the words get in my way
Lurking deep inside my brain
Are opinions of horror slamming the door in my face

Bro, it ain't that high from the window
And how about a pill and a drink though?
Right on time for the big show
"Run the intro!"

Joyful game, yeah, come and play
To waste this'd be a shame, huh?
Glad you came, let's start the great escape

I hear scary voices and they just won't leave me be
Telling me "It's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay"
I hear funny noises and they're playing tricks on me
Telling me "It's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay
When you're lying dead in your grave"

A noose, a rope, a lasso joke
Yeah, in your bathtub, make your toast
Wash your dirty mouth out with soap
If we're talking 'bout Hope, guess who the hell slit her throat

Bro, it ain't that high from the window
And how about a pill and a drink though?
Right on time for the big show
"All aboard!"

Joyful game, it's time to play
We got no time to waste now
Grab a blade, begin the great escape

I hear scary voices and they just won't leave me be
Telling me "It's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay"
I hear funny noises and they're playing tricks on me
Telling me "It's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay
When you're lying dead in your grave"

"Going down"

So long, good night
Auf Wiedersehen, adjö
Good night

Joyful game, it's time to play
We got no time to waste now
Grab a blade, begin the great escape
(Here we go)

I hear scary voices and they just won't leave me be
Telling me "It's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay" (Okay?)
I hear funny noises and they're playing tricks on me
Telling me "It's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay, it's gonna be okay
When you're lying dead in your grave

When you're lying dead in your grave"
