Escape - The Joy Formidable

Every few thousand years

Come true man’s greatest fears

All the living things

Mother nature brings to tears

When the bombs are bursting in the air

And the rockets are making that red glare

I’m heading down

Down to that good hope town, where the weather’s fair

So why don’t you come away

With me my love

We’ll do what it takes

I’ll keep you safe

Why don’t you stay by me

And when the time comes

We’ll escape

When the big one finally hit’s LA

When Yellowstone has it’s day

We’re heading to the southern tip

On a plane or on a ship

We’ll do what it takes, we’ll find a way

And if that cloud forms up above

No sign anywhere of a dove

There’ll be no reason left to stay

We’ll try and live another day

In a place where there’s still love

So why don’t you come away

With me my love

We’ll do what it takes

I’ll keep you safe

Why don’t you stay by me

And when the time comes

We’ll escape

Oh, come away with me

We’ll escape

Oh, come away with me

We’ll escape

So why don’t you come away

With me my love

We’ll do what it takes

I’ll keep you safe

Why don’t you stay by me

And when the time comes

We’ll escape

We’ll escape

We’ll escape
