[00:17.11]I would rather live in pain than live in vain
[00:20.60]and in this way I don't know if anything will change,
[00:25.76]but at least I know who I am in this game that we play.
[00:34.70]Even though sometimes I don't know
[00:37.95]if it's even worth trying to get things to stay,
[00:42.25]but I've spent so long trying to let go
[00:46.66]that I just want a change of pace,
[00:51.62]'cause I used to chase after home,
[00:53.91]but now I'm afraid of that place
[00:56.23]'cause every time I stay I become static and I become afraid.
[01:03.67]Because sometimes I feel like I'm standing alone,
[01:09.04]but sometimes I feel like only the low road will lead me home,
[01:19.35]but I will do whatever it takes to stay away from being another drone
[01:23.36]because the further away I chase my demons away
[01:26.00]I feel like it's the chase that brings them so close.
[01:29.18]
[01:30.24]And today is today and that's all that will be remembered
[01:32.97]when life comes back and breathes into my bones in this cycles of living
[01:37.22]where I feel like all I love is all I lack
[01:39.65]and all I have is not my own, so I just continue to let go.
[01:49.61]And this mirror reminds of the worth I kept hidden in alleyways on cold days
[01:54.38]and nights of trying to feel alive,
[01:57.36]trying to pretend that nothing happens when no one turns on the light
[02:02.31]and I know that's not true, but I will believe it
[02:04.61]when I close my eyes because it's easier than trying to make things right.
[02:10.02]And I feel that the dark is inside of me shaking my knees
[02:13.97]trying to release this weight that needs to be set free,
[02:17.20]so release me, break my back and let me bleed
[02:20.99]I don't want to lose myself but It would be okay if I lost part of me,
[02:27.43]because we all just want to be set free.
[02:49.29]
[03:12.14]Set me free and watch me bleed (I don't want to lose myself
[03:24.66]but it would be okay if I lost part of me) watch me bleed,
[03:31.05]I've been holding in this breathe for far too long
[03:38.93]and it isn't freedom until it is released (so please release me)
[03:46.62]so set me free and watch me bleed cause I don't want to lose myself,
[04:02.59]so set me free and watch me bleed cause I don't want to lose myself.
[04:14.74]
[04:50.96]I know what I want; we all fight for what we want,
[04:54.88]even though it's not always what we need.
[04:57.76]And we're all in this together; we all share the some blood
[05:00.90]it's just that some of us are afraid to bleed.
[05:04.54]So the dark leaps out from us and into our streets,
[05:07.97]we get so isolated from it becomes a part of all that we can see.
[05:14.46]And even when we fall asleep we can feel these nightmares infecting our dreams,
[05:22.70]but when life comes into the darkness,
[05:26.14]the darkness can't understand what it seems and I would like to think
[05:31.80]that the more I grow with you it's the more the darkness can't understand me.
[05:44.75]I'd like to think that as I grow the darkness can't even see me.
