Escape

Lord I feel like escaping
To where I will feel no pain
Where this hollowness does not exist
Where I will find peace when I am asleep
Even when I wake up

There will be no more sorrow
My baby’s loss
Has created this vacuum
Where love for a child
Should have been
I need to escape
From myself
From life itself
From things that burn my chest
Like missing my son
Is there an escape
From this loss
Or redemption from pain
Escape… escape
