[Verse 1]
Looking at the stars
What a funny feeling
Dreaming in the dark
Just my bedroom ceiling
[Pre-Chorus]
Somehow it all feels so close
Moving away from the things I've outgrown
When was I no longer home
All I know
[Chorus]
I don't wanna go yet but I know if I stay
I'll be wandering around for a way out of this place
Hard to ignore
I still want more
Can I escape?
Is it too late?
[Post-Chorus]
I've been tied up in a city where the seasons don't change
And it's bittersweet to leave
But something in me can't wait
I'm at the door
Hard to ignore
Can I escape?
Is it too late?
[Verse 2]
Days fly in a double time
And it's catching up to me
Can't wait till it feels right
So what if I take the leap
Might miss all my innocence
Terrified of something different
I'm at home sick and I'm sick of it
[Chorus]
I don't wanna go yet but I know if I stay
I'll be wandering around for a way out of this place
Hard to ignore
I still want more
Can I escape?
Is it too late?
[Post-Chorus]
I've been tied up in a city where the seasons don't change
And it's bittersweet to leave
But something in me can't wait
I'm at the door
Hard to ignore
Can I escape?
Is it too late?
[Outro]
If I can't see
What's in front of me
Gotta grow up eventually
Can I escape?
Can I escape?
Can I escape?
