lyrics

You're So Beautiful Making Your Escape

If you swallow the key and you walk down the hall
They may have suspicions but they'll never know
Their cellphones are beeping they're texting the news
The odds have all changed now that you're walking through
Your strength is detachment their world is as dream
That you can see through like a warbling stream

You're so beautiful making your escape
When you break these chains and fly I hope that you won't break
This heart

We sat at the table while everyone laughed
But all I could feel what that cold blowing draft
Coming in through the windows and under the doors
But you weren't disturbed you were calming the storms
Of your mother and brother and crazy aunt Jane
The house was surrounded but you weren't afraid
You knew that the key was still safely hid
It was hard to swallow but I'm glad that I did

You're so beautiful making your escape
When you break these chains and fly I hope that you won't break
This heart
