Be My Escape Lyrics - Mmhmm - Relient K

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 

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'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, promise I'm going because 

I gotta get outta here 

'Cause 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 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've gotta get outta here 

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

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
