Quick Escape

Everyone is hating each other so much
There is no support among people
Everyone preaches one thing and does another
The people who should help each other

Are the ones who self-destruct the most
It's as if everyone is competing
For a prize that no one will ever win
It's sad, this reality behind the 'politically correct'

Everyone is just looking for a quick escape
And they don't care how many they hurt
Quick escape has become a crutch
Everyone depends on a quick escape
Quick escape

There are standards to be followed
Words to be polished and thought out
Everything has to be one hundred percent
Even though none of us are perfect

And they are searching for an artificial perfection
These lyrics will be criticized for being honest
They'll say I'm campaigning because
There is no sincerity, just some way
To try to empower, this world is lost

Everyone is just looking for a quick escape
And they don't care how many they hurt
Quick escape has become a crutch
Everyone depends on a quick escape
Quick escape

They can call me melancholic
Pessimistic, and just another stereotype
But I'm just writing and singing
My truth, and to hell with the rest
This is the truth, and they can try
But they won't silence me, whether they like it or not

Everyone is just looking for a quick escape
And they don't care how many they hurt
Quick escape has become a crutch
Everyone depends on a quick escape
Quick escape
