    Lyrics:
    I can understand how when the edges are rough
    And they cut you like the tiny slivers of glass
    And you feel too much
    And you don't know how long you're gonna last,
    But everyone you know, is tryna smooth it over,
    Find a way to make the hurt go away,
    But everyone you know, is tryna smooth it over,
    Like you're trying to scream underwater,
    But I won't let you make the great escape,
    I'm never gonna watch you checking out of this place
    I'm not gonna lose you
    'Cause the passion and pain
    Are gonna keep you alive someday
    Gonna keep you alive someday

    This song was such a deep deep song at a time when no one knew I was suffering. This song connected me to P!NK on another level. I felt like someone understood. This song is so important. Please do not be afraid to reach out for help. Please don't be ashamed for struggling. You are so important.

      Melanie King-I am so sorry for your heartbreaking loss. I lost one of my best friends to the pain that she could no longer bear. I found out from a fellow friend-since I was trying to get the funds together to travel to get to Orlando. I miss Lisa every day. As a singer myself; I sang this song to her outloud over & over for weeks. Lisa visited me once, speaking my name & saying goodbye. I am dying from Stage 4, Metastasizing Endometrial Cancer in my bones, Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma, and a few other fatal illnesses. I know I will get to see, speak & embrace Lisa again soon.

    • @Meriale46
      @Meriale46 7 років тому +6

      This song can be interpreted in several ways. If someone relates to suicide than they words may speak to them helping them rethink that options. And can also be relatable to those with addictions and find drugs as their Great Escape. Many people are lost to addiction... lost to their friends and families, but more so lost to themselves. Many people give up on their loved ones when they are addicted to drugs or alcohol or any other type of issue that makes people over indulge themselves until they destroy themselves and their lives...then there are some that never let go and continue to hold on and encourage them to never give up trying to survive without the help of drugs and so. It can also pertain to people with Chronic or terminal illnesses that suffer every day of their lives wanting and needing their pain and suffering to end...
      My favourite verse in this song is the last-
      I'm the king of the great escape
      You're not gonna watch me checking out of this place
      You're not gonna lose me
      'Cause the passion and pain
      Are gonna keep us alive someday
      Yeah the passion and the pain
      Are gonna keep us alive someday, someday
      This verse is the most important as it shows a person's will to overcome whatever plagues their lives. Rather than falter, they grasp onto the hope that someday they'll be free and learn to appreciate the love that someone freely gives to them. Giving them faith that their pain and suffering is coming to its end as long as there is someone there to hold you when your down, lift you up when your weak and never let you go. It's a ride they take together.
      The beauty of music is how it affects every individual that truly listen to the lyrics and find some comfort in them. Pink has a way of opening herself to people and by doing this she helps so many others. That's a gift...

    Through tear glazed eyes I type. I'm at a point in my life, where I'm fighting harder than ever. I have many wonderful loving, long distance friends. Just none, by me. I met a great guy, yesterday. We're dealing with similar issues. We connected. When I told him about my latest attempt at "the great escape", he genuinely meant how dimmer the world would be, with out me. A practical stranger, would have missed me. It didn't hit me, till reading the words of the song. P!nk, I have always loved you, but your songs will be saving lives.

      Jerry Fraine I have no idea who you are, but by reading this I would say maybe you've had some rough days. Remember that this life is short, and through it all try and make it the best you can. One day we all make the great escape. Just remember, there is always a reason for life. Even if its only to make a difference in one persons life. Maybe even someone you don't even know. Always know that every sunrise and every sunset is a beautiful thing. Stay positive, and enjoy even the smallest things in life, because one day we all move on to another place. Hope you are well.

    • @cellogirl11rw55

      I can identify with you. I sobbed throughout the whole song because I have Bipolar Disorder Type 2 with rapid cycling, and there are days when I am so tired of being stuck on this rollercoaster that I think about making "the Great Escape." I am more stable now that I'm in a DBT program and on medication, but, I still have hypomanic and depressive episodes. Most of the time, I feel great when I'm hypomanic, but I always crash and burn into depression afterwards. Whenever that happens, I remind myself that this episode will not last forever, and I will eventually level out again.

    In 2012 when the album came out I was so obsessed with P!nk, I probably listened to this song 100 times just in the last quarter of that year. But I haven't heard this one in 3 years now, so wow, it's like seriously nostalgia. It's crazy how I can go from being the biggest P!nk fan out there to someone who never even listens anymore

Even if I don't know Pink personally, she has shown me through this song that I'm not alone, and I can come out of this rut because I am a strong person, and I deserve to live the life planned for me.

    Been having a really bumming day since last night. Negative people trying to down me in their negativity. Making it really hard to be positive and happy today. Really stressing me out. So I went to my Pink playlist on UA-cam. Forgot about this song. It's so...reflective of me and my journey over the last several years. For years I would have done anything to get away from all the hurt and the pain. People acting like it was nothing. Just pretending stuff didn't happen. Now, I'm on the later part of this song.
    Pink, you and I are so much alike, or at least your music and interviews make it seem like that. That we have a lot in common. Your music has helped me so much over all these years. Thank you so much and keep the awesome tunes coming! Stay awesome!

      Sometimes it is our place to be completely empty. Void of all things good. It hurts like a baby tooth and I can't leave it alone even if it bleeds. Take comfort in these moments. For it is absolutely NOT the end. You are merely expanding your vessel. You will not see a solution, you will not feel anything but the void and the void alone. All around you are wonderful, beautiful, almost miraculous things. They are everywhere. The void makes you keep your eyes closed. You MUST PRY THEM OPEN! Inside all of us is a fire that never stops burning. Stoke the fire, even if it makes you crazy. Look around you, naked and fearless. Fill the void with not yourself but, with what's around you. Search for good and you will find it. It is always there and always has been. All that's missing is courage. And if you fail? So what..... So the f*#@ what! Get up and just point the right direction, that's all.
      Show up pointed in the right direction and the rest will take care of itself. But most of all, eventually
      This will pass

    My daughter is in the hospital fighting 3 serious illnesses, MS, Crohn's and the JC Virus... when she first starting getting sick back in 2012 and we had no idea what was wrong with her, she was becoming very depressed, always in chronic pain, and no one she felt understood her pain and suffering. I was so worried for her as any Mother would be, and one day I was listening to Pink videos and this one popped up... after listening to the words it fit our situation perfectly, being I was already battling my own illnesses at the time. In the past 3 years so much has happened, she's been in and out of the hospital fighting a brave fight, her father was diagnosed with stage 4 Cancer and passed away in January... and she is still fighting for her own survival. And I will always be here for her no matter what she goes through, I will never let her fall...

      Raquel Brito Thanks you for asking about her. She is still battling these diseases and will for the rest of her life. It has gotten easier for her to manage due to her ongoing treatments and great Doctors she now has to help her manage her pain and suffering. I continue to do all I can to make her life as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. God bless you for your concern. Take care.

    One of the things I love about P!nk is the way that her songs mean things on so many different levels. Really everyone can find a piece of their own truth in her music and that's one of the things that I think is really special about her.

    Pink, I just wanted to say thank you so much for writing this song. I've been struggling with bipolar depression for the past 7 months, and I've been having a really tough time with finding the right meds and getting my symptoms under control. I often cut myself to distract myself from the pain and frustration I feel. I have the type with hypomania, so, I can go from skipping around the house to anxious, angry, irritable, and even suicidal in a matter of minutes. But, this song has inspired me to keep fighting, so I will listen to it whenever I feel like giving up. Thank you thank you thank you thank you sooooooo much!!!!

I wish I could of showed her this before I lost her. if you ever have suicidal thoughts, just know that even if it doesn't seem like it, you are the biggest impact in some ones life and they don't want to lose you. don't make them go through life without you.

Thank you, Pink, for fighting for every human being, the underdog, people who feel they dont matter or fit in, and reaching people through your music. I will never tire of listening to your music, been listening to you since I was 15 (20 years). It's got me through some difficult times in my life.

Your music became the only thing I could relate to in the world and made me realise I was not alone - not ever. And then years ago you made this song, my favourite song.
    The song that saved my life.

If you know it or not there is someone that is just like you, going through the same thing you are. You are never alone. You have to hit rock bottom before you can get back up again. Thank you P!nk for giving us hope!

    This song is the proof P!nk sings what she feels, or maybe just what she wants to (who knows ?), and she can sing things different from beautiful yelling songs, and that she can also sing deeper and calmer songs. That's why I love her, and I'll keep on being after her.

    Puedo entender cómo cuando los filos son crueles
    Y te cortan como las más pequeños pedazos de vidrio
    Y sientes demasiado
    Y no sabes cuánto vas a resistir
    Pero todos a quienes conoces están tratando de suavizarlo
    De encontrar una manera de hacer que el dolor desaparezca
    Pero todos a quienes conoces están tratando de suavizarlo
    Como si estuvieras tratando de gritar bajo el agua
    Pero yo no te dejaré hacer el gran escape
    No voy a verte nunca abandonando este lugar
    No voy a perderte porque la pasión y el dolor
    Te van a mantener con vida algún día
    Te mantendrán con vida algún día
    Siento como si pudiera agitar mi puño en frente de tu cara
    Y que no te acobardarías, o siquiera sentirías nada
    Y te has retirado a tu rincón del silencio
    Como si hubieras decidido que la lucha ha terminado para tí
    Todos a quienes conoces están tratando de suavizarlo
    De encontrar una manera de hacer que el dolor se aleje
    Todos a quienes conoces están tratando de suavizarlo
    Todos necesitan un suelo donde caer
    Yo no te dejaré hacer el gran escape
    No voy a verte nunca abandonando este lugar
    No voy a perderte porque la pasión y el dolor
    Te van a mantener con vida algún día
    Te mantendrán con vida algún día
    Oh, aterrorizada por la oscuridad, pero no si tú vas conmigo
    Y no necesitaré una píldora que me deje adormecida
    Y ya escribí el libro en el trayecto
    Pero el capítulo de mi vida pronto habrá terminado
    Soy el rey del gran escape
    Tú no vas a verme nunca abandonando este lugar
    No vas a perderme porque la pasión y el dolor
    Nos van a mantener con vida algún día
    Sí, la pasión y el dolor
    Nos van a mantener con vida algún día
    Algún día...♥
