[Verse]
Wires snapping like brittle bones
Shadows creeping over the stones
Every breath a battle cry
Steel doors laugh as we try
[Prechorus]
But the chains don’t hold forever
The dark can’t last
Not ever
[Chorus]
The great escape
The great escape
Run till the earth breaks
The great escape
The great escape
No more walls
No more weight
[Verse 2]
Echoes screaming
Don't look back
Every step burns
The sky cracks
Freedom’s a ghost in the night
Chasing stars
Losing sight
[Chorus]
The great escape
The great escape
Run till the earth breaks
The great escape
The great escape
No more walls
No more weight
[Bridge]
Hands torn
Hearts racing
Dreams we’re chasing
Time erasing
Every scream fuels the fight
No chains can bind the light
