Lucky Escape lyrics

[Verse 1]

I wrote it down when I first met you

The way that you stared at me

You're so damn smart, you think you're special

But maybe I wouldn't agree

Don't lose perspective, we all get damaged

And some of us don't ever heal

But you must be happy without me

[Pre-Chorus 1]

From all of the pictures I've seen of the two of you

Is he a model?

I'm not surprised, you're so vain

Let's not pretend like we didn't have problems

And I'm back to being angry again

Yeah

[Chorus]

You never said the things you wanted, you kept them in

You made a scene

And now it haunts you, what might have been

You're so deluded, you're such a fake

And now you got somebody else to manipulate

I think I dodged a bullet

I made a lucky escape

[Verse 2]

You probably think I must be broken

Promiscuous boy, be ashamed

Well I can tell you honey, I'm potent

At least I own up to mistakes

Don't lie to me now, just have some courage

And show them who you really are

All this is too exposing

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Do I have to see all the pictures of both of you

Is he a model?

I'm not surprised, I'm so vain

Let's not pretend like we're solving the problem

And I'm back to being angry again

Yeah

[Chorus]

You never said the things you wanted, you kept them in

You made a scene

And now it haunts you, what might have been

You're so deluded, you're such a fake

And now you got somebody else to manipulate

I think I dodged a bullet

I made a lucky escape

[Bridge]

You just come back a little too late

I'll be making my lucky escape

You just come back a little too late

Make my lucky

Make my lucky escape

You just come back a little too late

I'll be making my lucky escape

You just come back a little too late

Make my lucky

Make my lucky escape

[Chorus]

You never said the things you wanted, you kept them in

You made a scene

And now it haunts you, what might have been

You're so deluded, you're such a fake

And now you got somebody else to manipulate

I think I dodged a bullet

I made a lucky escape
