Redwood - Great Escape Lyrics

2025 Broadway
Redwood the Musical - Great Escape Lyrics

The song is written by Kate Diaz and Tina Landau.

Here I am, it's fine, just count to three.
If I stand, there's nothing holding me.
Just a subtle breeze
I think I'll stay here on my knees.

Don't look down just focus on one thing
Oh my God, it's kind of hard to breathe.
Will you remember me?
The city girl who died hugging a tree.

But from here
I can see it clearly.
It's nature's remedy.
Far away, for today,
I'll stay.
And I'll make
My great escape.

Here I am, I'm up a mile high.
But somehow I'm safer in the sky.
'Cause it feels so right.
I think I'll kiss the world goodbye.

Open arms, I'm ready to release.
In my heart, I'm suddenly at peace.
If I've found my reverie
Then I'll never want to leave.

'Cause from here
I can see it clearly.
It's nature's remedy.
Far away, from the pain.
I'll stay.
And I'll make my great escape.

From here I see it all,
And I never knew that that
This world could look so small.
Makes me feel like up here
Nothing can get to me now
And I can finally breathe again...

But from here
I can see it clearly.

Far away, from the pain.
I'll stay.
I'll stay.
'Cause I've found my great escape.
