about

The story behind the song:

The song was created during the quarantine, in the middle of the night. We wanted to express through music and this (homemade) video the struggle we are all living these days. For some people, it is a physical struggle, the fact of being locked up in small spaces. For others, it’s a psychological fight. We all need to escape a bit the reality from time to time. Especially when the daily life is getting complicated.

This song reflects what we feel during this period. Tough moments, good moments. But above all, we will never stop believing that there will be brighter days. We’re all together in the same boat. And sooner or later, we will all escape this rough time together.

Here's to brighter days!

Escape's Lyrics:

You think I’m happy
But I’m just broken,
You keep on fighting
The reason I’m still standing is because…

So many days, so many nights
I tried to be the one you like
But you always find a problem,
I’m always wrong, you’re always right

And maybe we were mistaken,
And all the words unspoken,
Do we still have a chance to be as one, again?

You think I’m happy
But I’m just broken,
You keep on fighting
The reason I’m still standing is because…
I am trying,
To make you feel better,
But I should be leavin’
The reason I’m still staying is because I believe…

We used to be so different in the past
It’s crazy how the time is runnin’ fast
I don’t know when the things began to change
--But something in your eyes, is no longer the same

Are we just tired of our daily life,
Not strong enough to make passion last,
And in the middle we lost the flame,
--Oh something in your eyes, is gone

You think I’m happy
But I’m just broken,
You keep on fighting
The reason I’m still standing is because…
I am trying,
To make you feel better,
I should be leavin’
The reason I’m still staying is because I believe…

It’s alright, alright, alright
I’ll never let you down,
And every day, and every night
I’m gonna stay with you no matter what
It’s alright, alright, alright
No fight, no fight, no fight

And no more pain, we feel alive
I’m gonna stay with you ‘cause...

You make me happy
And I feel stronger,
I keep on fighting,
Believe me I am standing now because…
I’m escaping,
And I’m feeling better,
You make me dreamin’,
The reason I’m still staying is because I believe…
