Be My Escape lyrics

Song : Be My Escape



 Send "Be My Escape" Ringtone to your Cell 

 

I’ve given up, I’m 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 call that You mentioned is my one
last shot at redemption 

because I know to live you must give your life
away

And I’ve been housing all this doubt and
insecurity and 

I’ve been locked inside that house all the
while You hold the key

And I’ve been dying to get out and that
might be the death of me

And even though, there’s no way in knowing
where to go, promise I’m going because

I gotta get outta here 

I’m stuck inside this rut that I fell into
by mistake

I gotta get outta here 

And I’m begging You, I’m begging
You, I’m begging You to be my escape.



I’m giving up I’m doing this alone
now

Cause I’ve failed and I’m ready to
be shown how

He’s told me the way and 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



Cause I’ve been housing all this doubt and
insecurity and 

I’ve been locked inside that house all the
while You hold the key

And I’ve been dying to get out and that
might be the death of me

And even though, there’s no way in knowing
where to go, promise I’m going because

I gotta get outta here 

Cause I’m afraid that this complacency is
something I can’t shake

I 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 



Cause I’ve been housing all this doubt and
insecurity and 

I’ve been locked inside that house all the
while you hold the key

And I’ve been dying to get out and that
might be the death of me

And even though, there’s no way in knowing
where to go, promise I’m going because

I’ve gotta get outta here 

I’m stuck inside this rut that I fell into
by mistake

I’ve gotta get outta here 

And I’m begging You, I’m begging
You, I’m begging 

You to be my escape.



I fought You for so long

I should have let You in

Oh how we regret those things we do

And all I was trying to do was save my own
skin

But so were You



So were You
