Escape

03 Escape by JessicaProutyBand

Watch Escape live at Downtown Disney at NAMM for SchoolJam USA.

See the video of the song produced by the John Lennon Tour Bus.

Instrumental beginning

Every step we take is another closer to the goal
Striving for perfection, together as a whole
We use our minds to manifest the future
To have and to hold,
The way we see it…

(Chorus) It’s time to Escape
To leave the lies
And embrace the hope in our eyes
Escape to another place
Where what we recognize is left behind

The moves we make, decisive with time
We will overcome who’s next in line
We use our minds to create the tension,
The competition,
The way we see it…

(Chorus) It’s time to Escape
To leave the lies
And embrace the hope in our eyes
Escape to another place
Where what we recognize...

Bridge
We are not like the rest
You will see, we surpass the best
I swear that your fate is set.
Your fate is set!

Guitar Solo/Modulation

What we recognize is left behind Escape…
What we recognize is in your eyes Escape…
What we recognize is left behind Escape…
What we recognize is in your eyes.

Lights

02 Lights by JessicaProutyBand

Picture me in total darkness trying to find my way
Lost amid the echoes ... children laugh and play
Everyone is standing there not hearing what I say
A parallel dimension separated from the fray ... then ...

Lights ... open up the sky ...
I'm swimming in a rainbow and stars are floating by
Lights ... Flowers blooming in the night
The moon is in sunglasses 'cause you make it all so bright

Picture me in a castle locked inside the tower
The pounding of the pendulum grows louder every hour
The sweetness of my solitude is slowing turning sour
The loneliness ... the emptiness ... destined to devour ...

Lights ... open up the sky ...
I'm swimming in a rainbow and stars are floating by
Lights ... Flowers blooming in the night
The moon is in sunglasses 'cause you make it all so bright

How can it be you always see that I believe? ...
Just when I'm about to fall again
How can you undo this tangled web that I weave?
And everything I break be yours to mend?

Picture me in total silence singing in a choir
A shadow through the stained glass slowly floating higher
Acapella angels until their hearts desire
to the world their melodies they sing by candle fire

Lights ... open up the sky ...
I'm swimming in a rainbow and stars are floating by
Lights ... Flowers blooming in the night
The moon is in sunglasses 'cause you make it all so bright

Falling

08 Falling by JessicaProutyBand

You don’t impress me,
Your stupid antics don’t work this time
I see you, you think you look so strong,
One little break, and it won’t be long, ‘till you

Chorus
Fall, into your own mind
Fall, as I’m looking outside the lines
Fall into exactly what you see,
Falling that will never happen to me

My contempt for you runs deep
Your hate is building up all this heat
When you fight fire with fire you just get burned.

(I dare you to)
(chorusx1)

I dare you to, I dare you to, I dare you to, I dare you to, I dare you to, I dare you to…

Fall

Please Be OK

05 Please Be OK by JessicaProutyBand

Everytime I’ve fallen
You’ve been there to pick me up
Every time I’ve cried
You’ve been there to wipe the tears away
Every time I’m scared
You’ve been there to whisper “it’s ok, honey”
I wish it was ok, right now.

Everytime you’ve fallen
I’ve tried my hardest to pick you back up
Everytime you’ve been sad
I’ve tried to comfort you the best I can
Every time you’re worried
I try to whisper “it’s okay, honey”
But you slowly turn away

Please, please be ok for me
Please show me that you can pull through
I’m here, for you
I’m trying to make you happy
Please, please be ok for me
Show me that you can be
The man I live for
The one that makes me smile everyday
Always know that I love you.

Everytime we’ve fallen
We’ve had the strength to arise together
Everytime there’s been trouble,
We’ve known just what to do to make it go away
Every time we’re together
We feel so alive, we feel so alive
But this time, you’ve slowly turned away

Summertime

09 Summertime by JessicaProutyBand

Make you cry
Memories, yours and mine
And I can't leave until the summertime
Hold my hand, 'cause together we both stand
And I won't breathe until the summertime

Chorus
I try and I try but it seems to get me nowhere
I try so hard but I never seem to get anywhere
My heartbreak follows me and I'm sure that's what tears me apart
Every time I move forward I have to go back to the start

It kills me to know that I wasn't what you want
But I didn't realize that every time we talked
Where are all my hopes, where are all my dreams
But the taste of your lips, fingers on me

Chorus
but I can't put this pen down
no second time around
but I can't put this pen down
I can't put it down

Chorus
Hold my hand, because together we both stand
And I won't breathe until the summertime
