Exodus

My black backpack's stuffed with broken dreams
20 bucks should get me through the week
never said a word of discontentment
fought it a thousand times but now
I'm leaving home

Here in the shadows
I'm safe
I'm free
I've nowhere else to go but
I cannot stay where i don't belong

Two months pass by and it's getting cold
I know i'm not lost
I am just alone
but i won't cry
I won't give up
I can't go back now
waking up is knowing who you really are

Here in the shadows
I'm safe
I'm free
I've nowhere else to go but
I cannot stay where i don't belong

Here in the shadows
I'm safe
I'm free
I've nowhere else to go but
I cannot stay here, oh

Show me the shadow where true meaning lies
so much more is made in empty eyes
