Song Lyrics

You're the blue note
You are sad like a melody
In minor key
You sway, you float
For whenever you touch the ground
It drags you down
If I could
I'd make your heart unbroken
I'd make these words unspoken

It's the greatest escape
It's between you, me and the sea

You forsake me
For the ones that we left behind
They left you blind
Sometimes it seems
Like you forgot the misery
I'd set you free but you
You miss the thrill of violence
Thank me with utter silence
For taking you away
It's the greatest escape
It's between you me and the sea

It's the greatest escape
Cut through the highest waves
Finding your soul a haven
Water the garden over your grave

Augustinus Hendricus Rudolf Eikens, David Martijn Westerholt, Johanna Charlotte Wessels, Timo Somers
