Escape the Rush [Verse 1] Let’s drop this endless rush today, Or we’ll waste ourselves away Chasing twilight through the dark — Not for love, not for dreams, Not moonlit walks that gently gleam, Not books that leave a lasting mark, Not breathing spring’s sweet air When cherry blossoms fill the dark. [Pre-Chorus] Yes, all will pass like apple smoke, But that’s the reason — live it fully! And so we’ll say with every breath, Repeating like a sinner kneeling: [Chorus] My friends, let’s flee this endless rush! It’s a faithless friend, deceiving. The time has come to burn the bridges, Escape the carousel’s mad crush! [Verse 2] I beg you — cast the rush aside! It’s time to feel that we’re alive. Though from ourselves we cannot hide, We need to draw the line inside. Or we’ll drown in trivial things — Minutes slipping through our hands, While we should carry on our backs The worlds that someone needs to stand. [Pre-Chorus] Yesterday is gone for good, Let’s not lose tomorrow’s light. My friends, let’s sit beside the fire And repeat it like a mantra, bright: [Chorus (Final)] Let’s step into the light at last, Let’s remember every dream! Let’s cast this endless rush away — Let’s leave it all behind us, free!
