Cutaway (guitar)
In guitar construction, a cutaway is an indentation in the upper bout of the body of the instrument adjacent to the neck of the guitar, designed to allow easier access to the upper frets.
Some manufacturers denote instrument models with cutaway using the suffix C, such as the Gibson L5C or the Maton CW80C.
There are two main types of cutaways: Venetian and Florentine. A Venetian cutaway has a rounded bout. A Florentine cutaway has a sharp bout. The picture shows a Venetian cutaway. (The terms probably originate with the Gibson Guitar Corporation and probably do not reflect historic instrument-making practices of Florence and Venice). A less common third type is the squared-off cutaway used on the Selmer-Maccaferri guitar and some nylon-string guitars.
As well as the more common lower cutaway, many instruments have an upper cutaway, sometimes smaller than the lower one, or sometimes about the same size. This is mainly seen on electric guitars, as the reduction in body size resulting from a double cutaway would be detrimental to the sound quality of an acoustic guitar. Double cutaways allow the thumb as well as the fingers to move past the neck-body join. Symmetrical ones also facilitate left-handed use of right-handed instruments.

Escape

It's been a long day working, thinking
Just a servant of society
Stuck in paradise
And I'm trying hard to
See the brighter side of this
But serving all these idiots
It's hard to say that it's the best that I'll find
I gotta get out of this place
I don't wanna be here forever
I won't let it be my true fait
There has to be something better
Now I just gotta survive
Gotta keep food on the table
Gotta keep going nine to five
Holding on until I'm able to
Escape, Escape, holding onto this
Faint hope that this will not be it
I know a better life exists
Out there, somewhere one day I'll find
Escape, Escape, ignorance is bliss
Eyes open so it won't be missed
Don't know if I can handle this
Another day in this paradise of (mine)
Mine but, how much
Longer will I have to do this
This routine is getting old
One more hour till I get to go
Stuck in this cycle it seems
One day I'll finally be free
From this American dream
And I will live to see my
Escape, Escape, holding onto this
Faint hope that this will not be it

Another day in this paradise of mine
(Another day, it's all the same, again)
And everyday it's all the same
(Not stuck in this place, I can get out alive)
Expendable pawns in this game
(I gotta get out, I just gotta try this time)
And am I really the one to blame
(won't take me alive, I will survive this life)
I just wanna get out right now
Escape, Escape, won't give up this fight
I will not settle for this life
I'll make a dream out of my time
And I'll be free
Escape, Escape, holding onto this
Faint hope that this will not be it
I know a better life exists
Out there, somewhere one day I'll find

But it will get better I think)
