You Asked

I want you to hear this
I'm calling out your name
Been trying to reach you for months
Nothing is the same
I've lost my interest
Feels like I've lost my mind
Sometimes I wonder how we
Walk through this life blind

I tricked them and failed
Wound up right inside their jail
In order to survive I'm up for sale
So now my hands are dirty and my fists are clenched
I've lost my reason, I don't know what's next
I'm scared to run, I don't want to hide
My mind is tearing me up inside

You asked
You wanted to see if I've had enough
You should have known
Think fast
I'm looking for a reason not to go
You better know

The town feels empty
The streets are a mess
The trees are reaching out
They tell us what is next
The lies of shadows
Are knocking on our doors
The children wander
Cause they've lost their way home

I wish for peace
But I don't know what that really means
When I see so many people
Giving up on their dreams
And as hands line my pockets when I'm in distress
All the while ignoring this mess
I want off the grid, no power supply
I'm sick of greed, deceit and lies

You asked
You wanted to see if I've had enough
You should have known
Think fast
I'm looking for a reason not to go
You better know

You asked
You wanted to see if I've had enough
You should have known
Think fast
I'm looking for a reason not to go
You better know
