about

escapism
/ɪˈskeɪpɪz(ə)m, ɛˈskeɪpɪz(ə)m/
the tendency to seek distraction and relief from unpleasant realities, especially by seeking entertainment or engaging in fantasy.

lyrics

To be in this world
Is to suffer all the time
But recently I have found
A perfect way to survive
I can escape when I want
I need only some nice story
I'd immerse 'cause I don't
Feel like having again to worry

I can read, I can watch
I can play, I can dive
I can't fight, I can't dodge
I can't run, I can't hide

It's too hard to deal with life
Avoid duty, loss and coercion
Lets me evade every strife
Escapism - mental diversion

It's too hard to deal with life
Avoid duty, loss and coercion
Lets me evade every strife
Escapism - mental diversion

The role of distraction
In shifting unwanted moods
The most vital is my passion
To various things which include
Maybe some compulsive actions
Or even something spiritual
Doesn't matter as long as
I won't see what is real

I can read, I can watch
I can play, I can dive
I can't fight, I can't dodge
I can't run, I can't hide

It's too hard to deal with life
Avoid duty, loss and coercion
Lets me evade every strife
Escapism - mental diversion

It's too hard to deal with life
Avoid duty, loss and coercion
Lets me evade every strife
Escapism - mental diversion

I don't want to...
I don't want to...
I don't want to...
I don't want to...
I don't want to...
I don't want to...

...

I can read, I can watch
I can play, I can dive
I can't fight, I can't dodge
I can't run, I can't hide

It's too hard to deal with life
Avoid duty, loss and coercion
Lets me evade every strife
Escapism - mental diversion

It's too hard to deal with life
Avoid duty, loss and coercion
Lets me evade every strife
Escapism - mental diversion

Escapism - mental diversion
Escapism - mental diversion
Escapism - mental diversion
Escapism - mental diversion
Escapism - mental diversion
Escapism - mental diversion
