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."
