Old yellow bricks love's a risk

Quite the little escapologist

Love's some myth when you wish

For a thousand places better than this

You are the fugitive

But you don't know what you're running from

You can't kid us and you couldn't trick anyone

Houdini look

You don't know what you're running away from

He wants to sleep in a city that never wakes up

Blinded by nostalgia

He wants to sleep in a city that never wakes up

She was enraged by the way

That the emperors were trapped in the cage

And the days she'd deemed dull

The empty nights reading beer bottles

You're such a fugitive

But you don't know what you're running from

You can't kid us and you couldn't trick anyone

Houdini look

You don't know what you're running away from

He wants to sleep in a city that never wakes up

Blinded by nostalgia

He wants to sleep in a city that never wakes up

Yeah it's a loss just because

It wasn't all that you thought it was

You are the fugitive

But you don't know what you're running away from

She said "I want to sleep in a city that never wakes up

And revel in nostalgia"

"I know" I said

"He wants to sleep in a city that never wakes up but

Dorothy was right though "
