Be My Escape (Album Version)

Be My Escape - Relient K/Unknown

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 I promise I'm going because

Ah ah

I gotta get outta here

I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake

Ah ah

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

He's 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 I promise I'm going because

Ah I gotta get outta here

Cause I'm afraid that this complacency is something I can't shake

Ah 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 I promise I'm going because

Ah I've gotta get outta here

I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake

Ah I've 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 in

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
