Escapist

And this one is certainly
an interesting story.
It starts with an ending
and weў‚¬"ўre both characters in play.
On the same stage
but on a different page
youў‚¬"ўll go on to become
the queen of some kingdom.
And Iў‚¬"ўll be that monster of myth
off in some forest, mire or filth.
This time around
Iў‚¬"ўll meet you halfway
and I wonў‚¬"ўt spend my life
lying awake at night.
And theyў‚¬"ўll say
Iў‚¬"ўm the emerald
missing from your crown.
The greatest escapist
the world has ever known.
Now itў‚¬"ўs so clear to me.
We should have seen this coming
back at the beginning.
We both chose to take this road
to the same place
but at a different pace.
This time around
Iў‚¬"ўll meet you halfway
And I wonў‚¬"ўt spend my life
Lying awake at night
And Iў‚¬"ўll say
Iў‚¬"ўm the fabled
one that let you down.
The greatest escapist
the world has ever known.
