The Great Escape

The Great Escape - P!NK (紅粉佳人)

Lyrics by：P!nk/Dan Wilson

Composed by：P!nk/Dan Wilson

I can understand how the edges are rough

And they cut you like the tiniest slivers of glass

And you feel too much

And you don't know how long you're gonna last

But everyone you know is trying to smooth it over

Find a way to make the hurt go away

But everyone you know is trying to smooth it over

Like you're trying to scream underwater

But I won't let you make the great escape

I'm never gonna watch you checking out of this place

I'm not gonna lose you

Cause the passion and the pain

Are gonna keep you alive someday

Gonna keep you alive someday

I feel like I could wave my fist in front of your face

And you wouldn't flinch or even feel a thing

And you've retreated to your silent corner

Like you decided the fight was over for ya

But everyone you know is trying to smooth it over

Find a way to make the hurt go away

But everyone you know is trying to smooth it over

Everyone needs a floor they can fall through

But I won't let you make the great escape

I'm never gonna watch you checking out of this place

I'm not gonna lose you

Cause the passion and the pain

Are gonna keep you alive someday

They're gonna keep you alive someday

Oh terrified of the dark but not if you go with me

And I won't need a pill to make me numb

And I wrote the book on running

But that chapter of my life will soon be done oh

I'm the king of the great escape

You're not gonna watch me checking out of this place

You're not gonna lose me

Cause the passion and pain

Are gonna keep us alive someday

Yeah the passion and the pain

Are gonna keep us alive someday someday
