Be My Escape

I'm giving up, I'm giving up slowly
I'm blending in so you won't even know me
Apart from this whole world that shares my fate
This one last pull you've mentioned
Is my one last shot at redemption
'Cause I know that you must give your life away

And I've been housing all this doubt of insecurity
And I've been locked inside that house and while you hold the key
And I've been dyin' to get out and that might be the death of me
And even though there's no even knowing of where to go
Promise, I'm goin' because

I've gotta get out of here
I'm stuck inside this world that I fell into by mistake
I've gotta get out of here
And I'm beggin' you, I'm beggin' you
I'm beggin' you to be my escape

I'm giving up, I'm doing this alone now
'Cause if I fail and I'm getting ready to show now
You told me the way and now tryin' to get there
And this life sentence that I am serving
I admit that I have been a bit deserving
With the beauty of grace that it makes life not fair

And I've been housing all this doubt of insecurity
And I've been locked inside that house and while you hold the key
And I've been dyin' to get out and that might be the death of me
And even though there's no even knowing of where to go
Promise, I'm goin' because

I've gotta get out of here
'Cause I'm afraid of this complacency is something I can't shake, yeah
I've gotta get out here
And I'm beggin' you, I'm beggin' you
I'm beggin' you to be my escape

I am a hostage into my own humanity
Self-detained and forced to live in this mess I've made
And all I'm asking is for you to do what you can with me
But I can't ask you to give what you already get

'Cause I've been housing all this doubt of insecurity
And I've been locked inside that house and while you hold the key
And I've been dyin' to get out and that might be the death of me
And even though there's no even knowing of where to go
Promise, I'm goin' because

I've gotta get out of here
I'm stuck inside this world that I fell into by mistake
I've gotta get out of here
And I'm beggin' you, I'm beggin' you
I'm beggin' you to be my escape

I've fought you for so long
I should have let you win
Oh, how we regret those things we do
And all I was trying to do is save my own skin
But so were you
So were you
