I Am Giant – The Escape Artist Lyrics

I don't know why, I can't explain
An artist of the great escape
I don't know why I levitate
Above the rest of the cabaret

I don't know why, I can't explain
You're on the trail of a renegade
The work of an illusionist
I never thought I'd get away with this

A trapdoor that opens in the real world
And lets in the arcane
A trapdoor that opens underneath you
Each time you lie

I didn't think I'd get away with this
I didn't think of an escape
I didn't think I'd get away with this
I didn't think of an escape

I don't know why, I can't explain
Lock me up and throw the key away
Sleight of hand, parlour tricks
A drinking game with the alchemist

I don't know why, I can't explain
I'm vanishing without a trace
And falling for this fantasy
You'd fall in love with a murder scene

A trapdoor that opens in the real world
And lets in the arcane
A trapdoor that opens underneath you
Each time you lie

I didn't think I'd get away with this
I didn't think of an escape
I didn't think I'd get away with this
I didn't think of an escape

If this is the real world
Then I become an illusion
If this is the real world
Then I become an illusion

I become an illusion
I become your illusion
A trapdoor that opens underneath you
Each time you lie

I didn't think I'd get away with this
I didn't think of an escape
I didn't think I'd get away with this
I didn't think of an escape
I become an illusion
(A trapdoor that opens in the real world) I become an illusion
(A trapdoor that opens in the real world) I become an illusion
