Escape

every day is getting me down
the sun won't shine and the clouds are gray
i am drenched with pain
how am i going to smile when all it does is rain.
i picture a small peice of paradise
somewhere nice
i only want a day far away
some place where i can escape

it's not my fault
when i get down into a funk
i just fall
and then i hit bottom
i roll around a little
then eventually get up
but once in a while i want
to jump
and land on a beach
drink a cool drink and escape

life plays its tricks
on time and lines on your face
you always wonder if your
in the right place
and no one doesn't doubt
there's some where else
they'd rather be
there's a little escapee
in everyone
and especially me
