Boys Like Girls is a four-piece rock band from Boston, Massachusetts.

Boys Like Girls is the eponymous debut album from Boys Like Girls. It was released on August 22, 2006 through Columbia Records/Red Ink. The album's lead single is "Hero/Heroine", with the music video directed by Mark Serao and Chris Vaglio of Grey Sky Films. In January 2007, the band filmed a video for the second single, "The Great Escape", in Los Angeles, California, which was released in late February 2007.

Boys Like Girls - The Great Escape Lyrics

Paper bags and plastic hearts
our belongings in shopping carts
It's goodbye
But we got one more night
Let's get drunk and drive around
And make peace with an empty town
We can make it right

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
Won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
'Cause we are finally free tonight

Tonight will change our lives
It's so good to be by your side
We'll cry
We won't give up the fight
We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs
And they'll think it's just 'cause we're young
And we'll feel so alive

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
Won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
'Cause we are finally free tonight

All of the wasted timing
Hours that were left behind me
Answers that we'll never find
They don't mean a thing tonight

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
Won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway

Throw it away
forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
won't hear a word they say
they don't know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
'Cause we are finally free tonight
