Lyrics The Dear Hunter

The Dear Hunter

An Escape

Oh hope where have you gone

And will you ever come back to me completely

All the wholes that I've left from

Forcing everyone around my heart to leave me

I could tell

There was nothing left for us

When you turned, oh, you turned your back

But in the arms of another

You were crying under the covers

For a way to escape, to escape

Oh God, where have I gone

And will I ever get the ones I tell to believe me

All the things I have done

To keep those around from learning to read me

I could tell

There was nothing left for us

When you turned, oh, you turned your back

But in the arms of another

You were crying under the covers

For a way to escape, to escape

So I guess I'm pressing on without you

I hope it goes the way you want to

But nothing ever seems like it does

And I don't believe a single word I say

(Don't believe a single word I say)

I could tell

There was nothing left for us

When you turned, oh, you turned your back

But in the arms of another

You were crying under the covers

For a way to escape, to escape
