"We've been stuck in this rut.
My mind is running in circles.
This feeling's getting worse.
But I'm here to tell you, that you're not alone."
I don't believe in luck, but I'd bet on all my cards not a word you said was true.
I don't trust you, I wouldn't trust your words even if they read true.
Liar, liar, I'm growing tired, as three words turn to ash in my hand.
Liar, liar, your sayings have expired, and the scent of your breath, it must leave I command.
The cold air on the first night, the weather and my soul had a fight.
(It's killing me, It's killing me)
Not physically, but it's wearing on me mentally.
(I must let go, I must let go)
Let this go.
I asked myself, "How did I end up here?"
I questioned my reason, I hated the season.
"I'm a soul with no home.
I'm a soul lost in eyes.
I'm a soul with a purpose.
You hoped for my demise.
And you won't hear my voice.
I'm begging for my bitterness to flee.
I'm searching for a home.
You were the only home to me."
I'm waiting, and searching, only looking for.
Just trying, to find my way, my way back home.
