[Nightwish - Escapist lyrics]
Who's there knocking at my window?
The owl and the dead boy
This night whispers my name
All the dying children
Virgin snow beneath my feet
Painting the world in white i tread the way
To lose myself into a tale
Come hell or high water my search will go on
Clayborn Voyage without an end
A nightingale in a golden cage
That's me locked inside reality's maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone bring me back to life
A nightingale in a golden cage
That's me locked inside reality's maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
It all starts with a lullaby
Journey homeward bound
The sound of a dolphin calling
Tearing off the mask of man
The Tower my sole guide
This is who I am escapist
Paradise seeker farewell, time to fly
Out of sight out of time away from all lies
A nightingale in a golden cage
That's me locked inside reality's maze
A nightingale in a golden cage
That's me locked inside reality's maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone bring me back to life
A nightingale in a golden cage
That's me locked inside reality's maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
It all starts with a lullaby
A nightingale in a golden cage
That's me locked inside reality's maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone bring me back to life
A nightingale in a golden cage
The owl and the dead boy
This night whispers my name
All the dying children
Virgin snow beneath my feet
Painting the world in white i tread the way
To lose myself into a tale
Come hell or high water my search will go on
Clayborn Voyage without an end
A nightingale in a golden cage
That's me locked inside reality's maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone bring me back to life
A nightingale in a golden cage
That's me locked inside reality's maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
It all starts with a lullaby
Journey homeward bound
The sound of a dolphin calling
Tearing off the mask of man
The Tower my sole guide
This is who I am escapist
Paradise seeker farewell, time to fly
Out of sight out of time away from all lies
A nightingale in a golden cage
That's me locked inside reality's maze
A nightingale in a golden cage
That's me locked inside reality's maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone bring me back to life
A nightingale in a golden cage
That's me locked inside reality's maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
It all starts with a lullaby
A nightingale in a golden cage
That's me locked inside reality's maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone bring me back to life
A nightingale in a golden cage
