Caught and Escape Lyrics

I'm not sleeping thoughts I can't shake the God
I hope you can rebuild what I break
I'm losing control I'm finding my end you might
think I'm alive if I just pretend

Let's just say it lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalaaa
Is it better to get caught or to escape?

So give me your hand show me a sign to get past the
wreckage I leave behind
I'm eating myself erasing old lines I'm still on
the edge of that road a million times (oh oh)

Well let's just say it lalalalalalalalalalalalalalaaa
It's better to get caught than to escape.

I'm not sleeping thoughts I can't shake God
I hope you can rebuild what I break
I'm losing control I'm finding my end you might
think I'm alive if I just pretend (oh oh)

Well let's just say it la la la la la

And only grace can fix what hearts can break

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
