I get the feeling that I'm missing out It's on the tip of my tongue And the words just won't come out Always ask so much more of myself Because I spend all my time wishing I was somewhere else It feels like it's getting harder to breathe With the rush of thoughts and no time for reprieve Always told that it's all in my head When my response goes unsaid There is no safe place to be found here The walls in my mind are built too high How can I overcome my fears? Anxiety has got me built to break You tell yourself it'll be ok While I sit here at home and I wish for better days No excuse to give up in the end While I'm stuck here alone with these messages unsent I'm breaking up into smaller pieces And I hope someone will finally notice There is no safe place to be found here The walls in my mind are built too high How can I overcome my fears? Anxiety has got me built to break I wish I could let go But no one ever taught me how I get the feeling that I'm missing out It's on the tip of my tongue And the words just won't come out Always ask so much more of myself Because I spend all my time wishing I was somewhere else

I'm a long walk from anywhere Wearing thin across a wasteland Finding life getting harder The more I understand Didn't realise this road is barren Meaningless words In one ear and out the other Doesn't mean I'm listening I don't want to hear it This bullshit is deafening What do you want to be? I can't find my destination I can't help but feeling life's been written out for me I'm finding it hard to breathe And I'm running out of patience I can't help but feeling life's been written out for me Can I find my place here? It can't be that hard, can it? I'm destined to fail if I sit around here getting comfortable And I saw myself Five years from now I'd do anything to give myself a second chance What do you want to be? I can't find my destination I can't help but feeling life's been written out for me I'm finding it hard to breathe And I'm running out of patience I can't help but feeling life's been written out for me And I know where I've been But I don't know where I'm going Can I keep up the pace? Got no intentions of slowing So what do you want to be? I can't find my destination Life's been written out for me I can't find my destination I can't help but feeling life's been written out for me I'm finding it hard to breathe And I'm running out of patience I can't help but feeling life's been written out for me

Redemption 03:44
I thought I knew it all But I tried to run before I learnt to crawl And now I'm looking from the ground below At a world that's passed me by I didn't know that time would fly without me I've hit the ground, I'm running on empty And now I've lost my spark Left in the dark Truth's been exposed I guess I should've known So many signals and warning signs I ignored all the guidelines I should've learnt my lesson Instead I ended up guessing And now I know I've found The answers in the dust I've kicked around And now I wish that I could change it all But I can't, not anymore I threw away the key after I locked the door Up off the ground, rewrite the ending And now I've lost my spark Left in the dark Truth's been exposed I guess I should've known So many signals and warning signs I ignored all the guidelines I should've learnt my lesson Instead I ended up guessing
