The Escapist by Nightwish

Who's there knocking at my window
The owl and the dead boy
The night whispers my name
All the dying children

Virgin snow beneath my feet
Painting the world in white
I tread the way and lose myself into a tale

Come hell or high water
My search will go on
Clayborne voyage without an end

Anightingale in a golden cage
That's me locked in reality's cage
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone, bring me back to life
It all starts with a lullaby

Journy homeward bound
A sound of a dolphin calling
Tearing off the mask of man
The tower, my sole guide

This is who I am
Escapist, paradise seeker
Farwell, now time to fly
Out of sight, out of time, away from all lies

Anightingale in a golden cage
That's me locked in reality's cage
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone, bring me back to life
It all starts with a lullaby
