Nightwish - The Escapist lyrics

rate me

Who's there knocking at my window?

The owl and the Dead Boy

This night whispers my name

All the dying children

Virgin snow beneath my feet

Painting the world in white

I tread the way

And lose myself into a tale

Come hell or high water

My search will go on

Clayborn Voyage without an end

A nightingale in a golden cage

That's me locked inside reality's maze

Come someone, make my heavy heart light.

Come undone, bring me back to life

A nightingale in a golden cage

That's me locked inside reality's maze.

Come someone, make my heavy heart light.

It all starts with a lullaby

Journey homeward bound

The sound of a dolphin calling

Tearing off the mask of man

The tower, my sole guide

This is who I am

Escapist, Paradise seeker

Farewell, now time to fly

Out of sight, out of time

Away from all lies

The nightingale in a golden cage

That's me locked inside reality's maze.

A nightingale in a golden cage

That's me locked inside reality's maze

Cant someone, make my heavy heart light.

Come undone, bring me back to life

A nightingale in a golden cage

That's me locked inside reality's maze

Cant someone, make my heavy heart light.

It all starts with a lullaby

A nightingale in a golden cage

That's me locked inside reality's maze

Cant someone, make my heavy heart light.

Come undone, bring me back to life

A nightingale in a golden cage

That's me locked inside reality's maze

Cant someone, make my heavy heart light.

It all starts with a lullaby
