Great Escape
...Hold on for so long that it doesn't feel gone

Pillar of salt - I'm a killer it's my fault
Shiny white column falling down, a roman ruin
Look behind me, everything is salt

Let's immerse, let's sing the next verse
It's the beginning - when do we get to start?
I've sung this verse before
I've paced this patch of floor

Pillar of needs - I'm a killer on my knees
Waves in my wake, but my fearlessness is fake
I can't look behind me for fear I'll see it all

Let's immerse, let's sing the next verse
It's the beginning - when do we get to start?
I've sung this verse before
I've paced this patch of floor

It looked like the great escape
To everyone who didn't know
I had no reason to run
So here's to the great escape
So don't look back, and don't look long
We had no reason to run....

Pillar of salt - it's at least half way my fault
Hold on for so long that it doesn't feel gone
I could look behind me, but I know just what's there

Let's immerse, let's sing the next verse
It's the beginning - when do we get to start?
I've sung this verse before
I've paced this patch of floor

It looked like the great escape
To everyone who didn't know
I had no reason to run
So here's to the great escape
So don't look back, and don't look long
We had no reason to run....
No reason to run....
No reason to run....
