Miles Away - The Great Escape lyrics

A few years and things were fine We rode our chances on a better life We stood waiting for things to change Constant source of disappointment Can't break the mould set in place We should have known Brought up with the stars in our eyes False hope to disguise their lies We're always waiting for the happy ending Just the start of our demise You feel, f**ing feel nothing For all the years you ever put in Just to fill the void and bridge the gaps In this cold dark world f** their world it never gave us a thing Spits out lies that we always take in And we've pushed our luck as far as we can go Its time to make the great escape Brought up with the stars in our eyes False hope to disguise their lies We're always waiting for the happy ending Just the start of our demise That we must escape, we've got to make our great escape
