Lyrics
Studio version
My black backpack's stuffed with broken dreams
Twenty bucks should get me through the week
Never said a word of discontentment
Thought 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'm 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
Show me the shadow where true meaning lies
So much more dismay in empty eyes
Live Version
My black backpack stuffed with broken dreams
Twenty bucks should get me through the week
Never said a word of discontentment
Thought 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 passed by and it's getting cold
I know I'm not lost, I'm 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
Show me the shadow where true meaning lies
So much more dismay in empty eyes
You can't stop the fire
Can you stand to fight her?
You can't stop the fire
You won't say the words
Can you stop the fire?
Can you stand to fight her?
You can't stop the fire
You won't say the words
