Escape (Abandoned demo)

[00:23.64] This is a step against forgetting
[00:30.29] This is a word against the gentle voice of sleep
[00:36.24] That sings to kill so easily
[00:40.61] I want to wake the rusty clockwork
[00:46.79] I'll pick the clenching lock that swallowed its own key
[00:52.55] And the caves will laugh, and the clouds will see
[00:56.32] You break in two, the ground beneath my towering fear
[01:05.33] That sometimes things really do just disappear
[01:10.24] You are the shackles gone tarnished
[01:14.09] You are at last the unharnessed
[01:17.34] You're an escape artist
[01:21.68] You're an escape
[01:25.34] You find the world that's lost to me
[01:29.04] You rise in reciprocity
[01:33.09] This is escape velocity
[01:36.69] This is escape
[01:42.45] And when I step into the daylight
[01:48.24] The sun is crying at the funeral performed
[01:53.51] In memory of the night before
[01:57.23] And if I drink away a brain cell
[02:02.36] There's one less unexpected rhyme I might reveal
[02:08.05] A dimming of the empyreal, but if a Bronze Age hunter freezes in the ice
[02:19.85] Is it too much to ask to live twice?
[02:24.00] If our broadcast waves bounce off of Andromeda and back
[02:30.46] I know in you the signal stays intact
[02:34.60] You are the shackles gone tarnished
[02:38.29] You are at last the unharnessed
[02:41.66] You're an escape artist
[02:45.18] You're an escape
[02:49.07] You find the world that's lost to me
[02:52.42] You rise in reciprocity
[02:56.02] This is escape velocity
[02:59.47] This is escape!
[03:04.16] Hey, hey, hey
[03:08.04] Hey, hey, hey-hey
[03:11.66] Hey, hey, hey-hey
[03:15.31] Hey, hey, hey
[03:18.76] Hey, hey, hey
[03:22.58] Hey, hey, hey
[03:26.16] Hey, hey, hey-hey
[03:30.25] Every book at Alexandria each
[03:34.33] Tiger of Tasmania
[03:37.54] The love in leper colonies
[03:40.70] The dreams that fly away from me
[03:43.88] And every last of every tribe each
[03:47.94] Language known by none alive
[03:50.99] The paintings burned in World War II
[03:54.53] They all escape oblivion in you
[03:58.88] All the shackles gone tarnished
[04:02.21] You are at last the unharnessed
[04:05.56] You're an escape artist
[04:08.95] You're an escape
[04:12.46] You find the world that's lost to me
[04:15.72] You rise in reciprocity
[04:19.26] This is escape velocity
[04:22.53] This is escape!
[04:27.12] Hey, hey, hey
[04:30.84] Hey, hey, hey
[04:34.20] Hey, hey, hey-hey
[04:37.90] Hey, hey, hey-hey
[04:41.21] Hey, hey, hey-hey
[04:45.02] Hey, hey, hey-hey
