Push me down
Hold me back
Grate up all my mind
I cannot see these chains
'Cause I'm already blind
I could escape
But I won't turn away
This is not my fate
I choose to live this way
I could be free, if not for me
Close me in
Choke me out
Kick me while I'm down
You don't have to keep me here
'Cause I'll just hang around
I could escape
But I won't turn away
This is not my fate
I choose to live this way
I could be free, if not for me
Oh no, if not for me
Taking back all your lies
Taking back, it's no surprise
Taking back all your lies
Taking back, it's no surprise!
I could escape
But I won't turn away
This is not my fate
I choose to live this way
I could be free, if not for me
Oh no, if not for me
I could be free
But I won't turn away
This is not my fate
I choose to live this way
I could be free
If not for me
