Why
I've been afraid
I've been afraid of this life
It's a prison cell that's holding me in
I will stay
I will stay locked inside
As a punishment for all of my sins
I will shout
I will scream 'til I'm tired and my lungs give in
Or the rest of my days
Let me out
Let me out and I swear
That I'll never need a savior again
Birds flying away
To the sky where the ground can't hold them
If there's a time, where is the place?
I am lost and I can't find my way
Run to escape
Where the words of the world won't hurt me
I'm growing tired of taking up space
And the moments that time won't erase
Have left me asking
Why?
Why?
Just, why?
Just, why?
Now I'm safe
Now I'm safe from the fire
That was feeding me a lie from within
My escape
My escape was inside of a melody that I couldn't sing
I will break
Every stone, every chain that is holding me
And weighing me down
I will make
Every moment of fear
Into a memory of where I was found
Birds flying away
To the sky where the ground can't hold them
If there's a time, where is the place?
I am lost and I can't find my way
Run to escape
Where the words of the world won't hurt me
I'm growing tired of taking up space
And the moments that time won't erase
Have left me asking
Why?
Why?
Just, why?
Just, why?
Why?
Why?
Why?
Why?
I've been afraid of this life
It's a prison cell that's holding me in
I will stay
I will stay locked inside
As a punishment for all of my sins
I will shout
I will scream 'til I'm tired and my lungs give in
Or the rest of my days
Let me out
Let me out and I swear
That I'll never need a savior again
Birds flying away
To the sky where the ground can't hold them
If there's a time, where is the place?
I am lost and I can't find my way
Run to escape
Where the words of the world won't hurt me
I'm growing tired of taking up space
And the moments that time won't erase
Have left me asking
Why?
Why?
Just, why?
Just, why?
Now I'm safe
Now I'm safe from the fire
That was feeding me a lie from within
My escape
My escape was inside of a melody that I couldn't sing
I will break
Every stone, every chain that is holding me
And weighing me down
I will make
Every moment of fear
Into a memory of where I was found
Birds flying away
To the sky where the ground can't hold them
If there's a time, where is the place?
I am lost and I can't find my way
Run to escape
Where the words of the world won't hurt me
I'm growing tired of taking up space
And the moments that time won't erase
Have left me asking
Why?
Why?
Just, why?
Just, why?
Why?
Why?
Why?
Why?
