all the while You hold the key

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 'cause I know to live you must give your life away. I've been housing all this doubt & insecurity, and I've been locked inside that house all the while you hold the key. 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've gotta get out of here.

I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake. I've gotta get outta here, and I'm begging you, begging you, I'm begging you to be my escape.

I've given up on doing this alone now 'cause I failed and I'm ready to be shown how. You've 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.

I've been housing all this doubt & insecurity, and I've been locked inside that house all the while you hold the key. 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've gotta get out of here. I'm afraid that this complacency is something I can't shake. I've 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.

I fought you for so long, I should've 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.
