The Escape Artist

I don’t know why
I can’t explain
An artist of
The great escape
I don’t know why
I levitate
Above the rest of the cabaret
I don’t know why
I can’t explain
You’re on the trail of a renegade
The work of an, illusionist
I never thought I’d get away with this
A trapdoor that opens in the real world
And lets in
The arcane
A trapdoor that opens underneath you
Each time
You lie
I didn’t think I’d get away with this
I didn’t think of an escape
I didn’t think I’d get away with this
I didn’t think of an escape
I don’t know why, I can’t explain
Lock me up and throw the key away
Sleight of hand;
Parlour tricks
A drinking game with the alchemist
I don’t know why
I can’t explain
I’m vanishing, without a trace
And falling for
This fantasy
You’d fall in love with a murder scene
A trapdoor that opens in the real world
And lets in
The arcane
A trapdoor that opens underneath you
Each time
You lie
I didn’t think I’d get away with this
I didn’t think of an escape
I didn’t think I’d get away with this
I didn’t think of an escape
If this is the real world
Then i become an illusion
If this is the real world
Then i become an illusion
I become an illusion
I become your illusion
A trapdoor that opens underneath you
Each time
You lie
I become an illusion
(a trapdoor that opens in the real world) I become an illusion
(a trapdoor that opens in the real world) I become an illusion
