THERE I WAS

Oh no,
There I was oh no,
There I was oh no,
Oh, there I was oh no woah,

There I was,
There I was,
There I was,
There I was,
There I was,
There I was,

The peace until a hopeless abandonment,
The feeling of a worthless entitlement,
What more could I do,
A crushing trauma started to set in,
A piece of my heart started to cave in,
Driving through states I've never been in,
Fighting for a reality of back home,
Gasping for a feeling of back home,
Forced like an unwilling war,
One sided,
Love divided,
Saying this might be the place that I die in,
In an empty room with my thoughts,
In a state of mind twice the cost,
Lost doesn't even get to describe,
The love that wasn't even in site,
What more could I bottled up inside,
My heart turned into a wicked thing,
Killed anything new if it meant I'd be back home sooner,
Leave my family if it meant I would be there sooner,
Sometimes unfair with these battles,
You need to play a little dirty,
Flirty with the idea of suicide,
These things that I hide,
For my pride,
Can't open up to my family to confide,
They don't understand,
They told me it was all God's plan,
Guess I got to experience firsthand,
The hometown ripped away,
The alone flipped around cliché,
The tone down chipped away decay,
I knew that in order for my life to go on I needed to get out,
This place drew out every fear that I had,
And laid it on a mat,
Said this is your time to face or be killed by this,
My heart torn in two,
Praying to God what more can I do?
So I was there,
There I was,
Alone,
There I was.

There I was,
There I was,
There I was,
There I was,
There I was,
There I was,
There I was,
There I was,
