Master of Escape
Actions creak floorboards
Chiseled wounds reopened
No words are spoken
Guillotined tongue used to hide lies
Cut to the point,
She says
Cut me free,
Cut me away
I know that won't do a thing
Cause I've tied no rope, I exclaim
Never snuck up on you with chains
When the floorboards are creaking
We both know you're the one
Playing dangerous games
With your cunning eyes
Your lying lips,
You don't say a word,
Just deliver deception
With a longing look
And a kiss
I'm the one,
Marybeth,
Who has to escape this
Raider breeches border
Spring thaw invites new conquest
No words are spoken
Every soft step used to hide signs
Cut-to-the-throat
Intent
Well, cut me free
Cut me away
You know you won't change a thing
Cause you've tied the rope, bound these chains
I've never been
A master of escape
But there's one secret
One set of words
I've never spoken,
To you never said
And in this one way
I can hold my breath
Longer than Houdini, dear
I've never been
A master of escape,
Yet there's one secret
One set of words
I've never spoken to you,
Never said
Believe me, Marybeth,
Trust me, in the end
I always find my way
And your cunning eyes
Your lying lips,
You don't say a word,
Just deliver deception
With a longing look
And a kiss
I'm the one,
Marybeth
Who has to escape this
And believe me, Marybeth,
Your turn to read my lips
I always find my way
