about

Our most political song on the EP and maybe altogether. It’s about raising your voice against the injustices that happen to you personally. But the song also tells of the difficulties of having to fight back after being silent for so long. ‘Escape Plan Blueprint’ should encourage you to stand by yourself, even though it can be damn hard to trust your heart. Musically, there’s a bit more venom and anger than usual as well. Like when you’ve bottled something up for too long and it’s been dying to get out. The second half of the song wraps up ‘Part 1’ of the album by cautiously looking ahead instead of back.

lyrics

LYRICS:

Can’t you see the moon in this dark night?
As you are stumbling down the road is your head still spinning round?
Can’t you hear them whispering in your ear?
You’ve never trusted the words they said
and your dreams are fading out like a candle in a lightning storm.
It’s so dark in here – please help me out!
Don’t leave me now!
It’s so dark in here – please help me out!

Raise your voice - open the window, spit out the dust that made your mouth so dry, lift yourself, take off and float away.

Over mountains and shattered fields they spread their wings just to make us feel so safe.
Behind the assembly line you made up your plan.
It’s so dark in here – please help me out!

Raise your voice - open the window, spit out the dust that made your mouth so dry, lift yourself, take off and float away.

You will see the sunrise in the morning. You will live.
