Temptation's not a word until we've let it go a stray

Artist- Architecture in Helsinki
Song of the day- Escapee

I've become addicted to this song, perhaps because I was dancing to this quirky bunch with a lot of friendly quirky strangers on friday, and also I think because since schools been out I've been attached to my bike, taking myself on mini solo adventures through town as I try to figure out where I'm going, bother literally (I got trapped in the zoo yesterday) and figuratively. All the while feeling like I'm trying to escape something, maybe boredom, maybe responsibility, maybe decision making, most likely deeper and deeper things cuz really I'd like to just be taken for a ride. So hopefully I will catch up to all these things or more likely they will catch up to me, but till then for all those escapees out there, this one's for you.



This escapee was never gonna stay
On an unfamiliar building on the rooftop where we lay
Where all the constellations shine to pave the way
Temptation's not a word until we've let it go a stray
And I won't delete it
He won't delete it

Light bolts hover over you all day
Oh darkness can be difficult like needles in the hay
I need to flick the switch and show you how to hide
And love is not the answer if you're taking me for a ride

This escapee was never gonna stay
On an island way too difficult to be stuck in a daze
And all the competition's overcome what may
Temptation's not a word until we've let it go a stray
And I won't delete it
He won't delete it

I'm escaping
You're escaping
