London Daé - Escapism Is an Art

Chill with Methuselah
Relaxing medulla oblongata
Emotions often transfer
What they feeling now I got it
Clear out this mental space
Travel distances listening
To Sonder
Wanderlust so I wander
Thoughts beat like heart as I ponder
Boom boom
I realize who I am
I realize I’m nothing
Just another entity
In this land of million
I sympathize with the damned
We’re all told lies and programmed
To think we belong
But we’re still treated different
I often sit in my pain
I often give it a name
intertwined in this loveless
Relationship
Depression, anxiety we date
Sometimes we do our own thing
But I’m not happy in this love I’m in
I build castles in the realms I dream
It’s a hassle just to get me to leave
Warrior princess in the chapters I read
Strong and resilient the me I wish I could be
Fairytales are for the lost
Thats what they told me young
Explain that to my anxious thoughts
How they hold me up
Surely just break my heart
For believing in my worth
Escapism is an art
It’s my relief from this earth
Panicking pa panicking
I’m weighed
Panicking pa panicking
I’m oh
Panicking pa panicking
I’m weighed
Panicking pa panicking
I’m oh
I stand tall like Hyperion
Leaves still falling down to the ground
Escapism is an art form
I’m on my self journey right now
Panicking pa panicking
I’m weighed
Panicking pa panicking
I’m oh
Panicking pa panicking
I’m weighed
Panicking pa panicking
I’m oh
Painting dreams in the skyline
Painting dreams just to get by
Mixing colors of paradise
Makes for feeling life is fine
I chill with the willows weeping
Nearest their branches
Beautiful brilliance
And how they fall dismayed
It’s hard to get much sleep in
Too busy watching God
Crazy how often I seek him
In the moons chase
Couldn’t swim the chaos
So I just rode the wave
Couldn’t fight the monsters
So I just hid away
Im finding so much comfort
Here in this hiding place
Fairy tales are for the lost
Yeah yeah so they say
So I lose myself a lot
Just to set off on a quest
Here in my mysticism
where I know me best
I can consume it all
I never seem to get much rest
Lay your burdens on
Ill hurt for you instead
I’ve found my strong
When the panic attacks
The fight is long ain’t no turning your back
Counting the stars to control all my breaths
Feels like a violent storm in the deep of my chest
Panicking pa panicking
I’m weighed
Panicking pa panicking
I’m oh
Panicking pa panicking
I’m weighed
Panicking pa panicking
I’m oh
I stand tall like Hyperion
Leaves still falling down to the ground
Escapism is an art form
I’m on my self journey right now
Panicking pa panicking
I’m weighed
Panicking pa panicking
I’m oh
Panicking pa panicking
I’m weighed
Panicking pa panicking
I’m oh
Painting dreams in the skyline
Painting dreams just to get by
Mixing colors of paradise
Makes for feeling life is fine
