kalie shorr – escape lyrics
[verse 1]
mama always said jesus was her husband
and the only thing she needs
she’d turn up billy graham so loud that i couldn’t sleep
and my daddy always smelled like smoke
but i was sixteen before i knew what kind
[verse 2]
when my older sister was in college
she met a piece of sh-t named phil
she didn’t know that heroine always starts with pills
and my brother thinks he’s better
’cause his kryptonite comes in a twelve-pack
[chorus]
everybody’s got a place where all their money goes
everybody’s got a high that sweetens up the lows
getting out of bed is hard if you don’t have a reason
everybody needs an escape, and mine was leaving
[verse 3]
i always thought it sounded nice
to be proud of your hometown
but mine was never quite the kind
you write country songs about
and i heard apples don’t fall far from family trees
so i taught myself to fly
[chorus]
everybody’s got a place where all their money goes
everybody’s got a high that sweetens up the lows
getting out of bed is hard if you don’t have a reason
everybody needs an escape, and mine was leaving
[verse 4]
when i met you, i hadn’t really eaten in three days
i’m sure i was hungry, but it was love i really craved
you told me that you saved me
and i thanked god you came and helped
but you were just another way of hurting myself
[chorus]
everybody’s got a star where all their wishes go
and if those stars ain’t lucky, then you’ve gotta hang your own
getting out of bed is hard if you don’t have a reason
everybody needs an escape, and mine was leaving
[outro]
oh, everybody needs an escape
