Be My Escape

Lyrics

I've given up on 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 bullet You mention is my one last shot at redemption
 Because I know to live you must give your life away
 And I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity
 And I've been locked inside that house
 All the while you hold the key
 And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me
 And even though, there's no way in knowing where to go, promise I'm going because
 Ooh, I gotta get outta here
 I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
 Ooh, I gotta get outta here
 And I'm begging You, I'm begging You, I'm begging You to be my escape
 I'm giving up on doing this alone now
 Cause I've failed and I'm ready to be shown how
 You've told me the way and I'm trying to get there
 And this life sentence that I'm serving
 I admit that I'm every bit deserving
 But the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair
 'Cause I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity
 And I've been locked inside that house
 All the while You hold the key
 And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me
 And even though, there's no way in knowing where to go, promise I'm going because
 I gotta get out of here
 'Cause I'm afraid that this complacency is something I can't shake
 Yeah I gotta get out of here
 And I'm begging You, I'm begging You, I'm begging You to be my escape
 ♪
 I am a hostage to 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 gave
 'Cause I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity
 And I've been locked inside that house
 All the while you hold the key
 And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me
 And even though, there's no way in knowing where to go, I promise I'm going because
 Ooh, I gotta get outta here
 I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
 Ooh, I gotta get outta here
 And I'm begging You, I'm begging You, I'm begging You to be my escape
 ♪
 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
 But so were You
 So were You
