Escape Songtext

von Journey

He's just a young boy out of school, livin' his world like he wants to
They're makin' laws, but they don't understand, turns a boy into a fightin' man

They won't take me, they won't break me

No one could tell him what to do, had to learn everything the hard way
He's on the street, breakin' all the rules
I'm tellin' you that he's nobody's fool, no

They won't take me, they won't break me

Now he's leavin', gettin' out from the masquerade, oh gotta go

(Solo)

I'm finally out in the clear and I'm free, I've got dreams I'm livin' for
I'm movin' on where they'll never find me, rollin' on to anywhere

I'll break away, yes I'm on my way, leavin' today, yes I'm on my way

Just when you think you had it all figured out
Runnin' scared can change your mind
I never knew I had so much to give, how hard times can fool ya'
Oh I'm okay, I'm alright, feelin' good out on your own
I'll break away, I'll break away tonight, I've got dreams I'm livin' for

I'll break away, yes I'm on my way
I'm leavin', leavin' today, yes I'm on my way
This is my escape, yes I'm on my way, I'll break away, yes I'm on my way
