I'll use a lock that has no key
Bind you with chains
That no one else can see
Let the water creep over your face
I'll send it in waves
Just to watch you perform the great escape
How long can you hold your breath?
While you hold mine, I'll come and wait
Just to watch you perform the great escape
I'll pull your arms tight behind your back
Use myself as weight
And wonder while you fade
How long can you hold your breath?
While you hold mine, I'll come and wait
Just to watch you perform the great escape
Bind you with chains
That no one else can see
Let the water creep over your face
I'll send it in waves
Just to watch you perform the great escape
How long can you hold your breath?
While you hold mine, I'll come and wait
Just to watch you perform the great escape
I'll pull your arms tight behind your back
Use myself as weight
And wonder while you fade
How long can you hold your breath?
While you hold mine, I'll come and wait
Just to watch you perform the great escape

(hence, I came here.)
She's trying to keep him with her, but despite her efforts, he still performs the great escape. Great escape, because there's so many things she uses to keep him.
Like a lot of Azure Ray's lyrics, could be about relationships and/ or addiction. One or the other, probably both. I don't think it's hard and fast one or the other.
