Relient K - Be My Escape Lyrics
Be My Escape
Ive given up on giving up slowly
Im blending in so you wont even know me
Apart from this whole world that shares my fate
And this one last bullet you mention
Is my one last shot at redemption
Cause I know to live you must give your life away
And Ive been housing all this doubt
And insecurity
And Ive been locked inside that house
All the while you hold the key
And Ive been dying to get out
And that might be the death of me
And even though theres no way of knowing where to go
I promise Im going
Because I got to get out of here
Im stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
I got to get out of here
And Im begging you
Im begging you
Im begging you to be my escape
Ive given up on doing this alone now
Cause Ive failed and Im ready to be shown how
Youve told me the way, and now Im trying to get there
And this life sentence that Im serving
I admit, that Im every bit deserving
But the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair
Because I got to get out of here
Cause Im afraid that this complacency is something I cant shake
I got to get out of here
And Im begging you
Im begging you
Im begging you to be my escape
And I am a hostage to my own humanity
Self detained and forced to live in this mess Ive made
And all Im asking is for you to do what you can with me
But I cant ask you to give what you already gave
I 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
was save my own skin
Oh, but so were you.
