Tyler Burkhart – The Escape lyrics
Looking at some time
For an uncommitted crime
And the witness wouldn't budge
As they sat before the judge
Just a victim to the law
He set to take the fall
And so the sentence came
Some thirty years and change
But he kept a flame alive
Yea he burnt it in his mind
"I’ll see the sun again
I’ll hold her close and then"
A decade passed or so
With no chance of parole
Seems the walls are closin’ in
Seems my stomach’s growing thin
What else could make a man
Take matters in his hand?
So he dug all winter long
The escape was set for dawn
He took off through the yard
Shot down by the guards
With a frantic dying breath
He watched the sun ascend
For an uncommitted crime
And the witness wouldn't budge
As they sat before the judge
Just a victim to the law
He set to take the fall
And so the sentence came
Some thirty years and change
But he kept a flame alive
Yea he burnt it in his mind
"I’ll see the sun again
I’ll hold her close and then"
A decade passed or so
With no chance of parole
Seems the walls are closin’ in
Seems my stomach’s growing thin
What else could make a man
Take matters in his hand?
So he dug all winter long
The escape was set for dawn
He took off through the yard
Shot down by the guards
With a frantic dying breath
He watched the sun ascend
