I never dream, I've no escape
I take amphetamine, it keeps me awake
But it traps me in
So I drink for fear
I'll think too much
And I'm already late
For the great escape
To conquer all
It's too much for me
I wanted it all
I'm barely on my feet
I grasp the edge
But you know I'd rather
Just let go
And I'm already late
For the great escape
I like to be on time
I never worry
I hate to wait in line
I'm always in a hurry
But I stick it out
For fear I'll miss you
When you come around
And I'm already late
For the great escape
