Lyrics Escapist - Nightwish

Escapist

Who’s there knocking at my window?
The owl and the dead boy
This night whispers my name
All the dying children
Virgin snow beneath my feet
Painting the world in white
I tread the way
To lose myself into a tale
Come hell or high water
My search will go on
Clayborn Voyage without an end
A nightingale in a golden cage
That’s me locked inside reality’s maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone
Bring me back to life
It all starts with a lullaby
A nightingale in a golden cage
That’s me locked inside reality’s maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone
Bring me back to life
It all starts with a lullaby
Journey homeward bound
The sound of a dolphin calling
Tearing off the mask of man
The Tower my sole guide
This is who I am
Escapist
Paradise seeker
Farewell, time to fly
Out of sight
Out of time
Away from all lies
A nightingale in a golden cage
That’s me locked inside reality’s maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone
Bring me back to life
It all starts with a lullaby
A nightingale in a golden cage
That’s me locked inside reality’s maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone
Bring me back to life
It all starts with a lullaby
A nightingale in a golden cage
That’s me locked inside reality’s maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone
Bring me back to life
It all starts with a lullaby
