Escape in the Afternoon Lyrics

Take me
Anywhere you could
Imagine and
Faithfully I will break the prison I was born in
Oh take me
Anywhere the sun shines
Away the harms of mankind off my shoulders

'Cause anything that we were meant to be
Was lost but I want to escape in the afternoon
To see the youth run through my hands

Sometimes I miss
My old friends in my home town
But don't take me
Anywhere it makes me
To dream about a life without a past with you

'Cause anything that we were meant to be
Was lost but I want to escape in the afternoon
To see the youth run through my hands

And anything that we were said to be
Was ruled in the juvenile grey industry mind
Now do you see yourself that way
When everything they wanted to be
The better people on a map of turning backs
Oh I'd just like to try to breathe

'Cause anything that we were meant to be
Was lost and I want to escape in the afternoon
To see the youth run through my hands

To see the youth run through my hands
To see the youth run through my hands
