The Great Escape - Fan Request #5

We have all got our holiday homes.
A place we go when we need to be away from daily routine.
The escapade.
We escape from monotony.
Sometimes we leave cause we need to be away.
We run away from what we believe to be harmful for us.
Or from what we would rather not face.
Sometimes any other place would do except for here.
Not all of us can afford to run away to a new place.
To find a new home to dwell or a resort to relax.
We are the kind that run from the inside.
We leave reality and find something that we make to be real.
We cease to exist where we are and begin to live where we wish to be.
We find our solace in places that the world cares less to explore.
We make up our own worlds where life is different.
Where life is easier.
Where life feels real.
We'd rather live in our heads than in a cruel world of our own.
How exciting to choose the kind of land you are to be born into.
To choose your lifestyle...
Customised to your liking.
How beautiful it is to run.
How beautiful it is to escape every once in a while.
To be where you want to be.
With the people you want to be with.
To feel protected, secure and rest assured
that theres always a place you can run to...
Especially when lifes not all that rosy.
I run all the time, I run to my place of thought
To my island of rest and to my world of sureity.
I run to a place where only I know.
A place that only I go.
And someday, when you understand me and my need to escape...
I'll take you there too.
