lyrics

Sinking
I’m drowning in my thoughts
Gasping
My ego has me where it wants

You pull me out
You calm this troubled sea
You slap my back expel my doubts
Until I finally breathe

I’ve let myself be swallowed
By the arrogance of youth
And I was set to die here
But now I know the truth

Can’t run away
No no
Can’t run away
But I’ll let my ego go
Can’t run away
No no
Can’t run away
But I’ll kick my fears out the door

Hiding
I’m lost within myself
Lying
It’s not my fault, it’s someone else

You grab my rope
You stop me in my tracks
You turn my worries into hopes
And now I can relax

I’ve let myself wallow
in an endless maze of strife
But now I’m busting out of here
‘Cause I got to live my life

Can’t run away
No no
Can’t run away
But I’ll let my ego go
Can’t run away
No no
Can’t run away
But I’ll kick my fears out the door

Help me free my mind
I ain’t wasting no more time

Now I see
That I’ve always got the key

Help me free my mind
I ain’t wasting no more time

Thanks to you I see
That I have always got the key

Can’t run away
No no
Can’t run away
But I’ll let my ego go
Can’t run away
No more
I won’t give in
This is the end
I’m not afraid no more

Dedicated to Shane Roberts
