Arena - The Great Escape lyrics

Am I still here? Am I hidden from your sight? Did I suddenly expire; did I walk into the light? But maybe there is time; one more trick up my sleeve There is still so much to say Can anybody hear me? I'm suffocating - can't you hear me shout Wrapped up in soft voices like a reverential shroud I'm suffocationg - can't you hear me cry A constant flow of faces on parade before my eyes Can anybody hear me? So much to say The secrets I have kept - stories from the good old days Can anybody hear me? So much to say The politics of people - and the games we choose to play This is not a coma I am resting my eyes Tired of the noise and scared of the lies But for one night only I will capticate you all With one last piece of magic ... one last miracle I'm suffocating - can't you hear me scream? As you stab me in the arm in search of somewhere good to bleed I'm suffocating - can't you hear my prayers? A rain of gentle hands trying hard to show they care I could fly so high and free - if my soul wasn't anchored to me I've got one last show I have to do And my powers of illusion will amaze and puzzle you Pull the rabbit from an old and battered hat Cut the lady into pieces, just like that I will mesmerize and dramatize and obfuscate And I'll finisch with undoubtedly the greatest - the greatest escape! Can anybody hear me? Am I hidden from your sight? Did I suddenly expire; did I walk into the light? Can anybody hear me? Am I hidden from your sight? Did you see me turn to stone, or go missing in the night? Can anybody hear me? Can anybody hear me? Did I suddenly expire; did I walk into the light? Can anybody hear me? Can anybody hear me? Have I turned into a statue, or gone missing in the night? Can anybody hear me?
