Lyric Be My Escape
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
It s my one last shot at redemption
Cause 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 of knowing
Where to go
I promise I m going because…
I gotta get out of here
I m stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
I gotta get out of here
And I m begging you, I m begging you, I m begging you to be my escape
I ve given up on doing this alone now
Guess I failed and I m ready to be shown out
You told me the way and now 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 of knowing
Where to go
I 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
That might be the death of me
And even though there s no way of knowing
Where to go
I promise I m going because…
I gotta get out of here
I m stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
I gotta get out of here
And I m begging you, I m begging you, I m begging you to be my escape

Radio edit doesn t have this verse:
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 (oh)
But so were you
So were you
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
It s my one last shot at redemption
Cause 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 of knowing
Where to go
I promise I m going because…
I gotta get out of here
I m stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
I gotta get out of here
And I m begging you, I m begging you, I m begging you to be my escape
