Slip away (6)

Ross

I think it could be either:

escape

elapse

'slip away' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for escape that I've seen before include "Elude; break free" , "Way out (from difficult situation)" , "Elude; leakage" , "Get free from captivity" , "Get away from captivity" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal and The Telegraph.
