Be My Escape (Acoustic)

by Just Surrender

I've given up
On giving up slowly
I'm blending in so you won't even know me
Apart from this world that shares my fate
This one last bullet you mention
Is my one last shot at redemption
Cause I know to live you must give your life away
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
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 outta here
I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
I gotta get outta here
And I'm begging you
I'm begging you
I'm begging you to be my escape
I've 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
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 outta here
I'm afraid that this complacency
Is something I can't shake
I gotta get outta 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
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 outta here
I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
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 shoulda let you in
(Ohh how we regret those things we do)
And all i was trying to do is save my own skin
(Ohhh)
But so were you...
so were you...
