Lyrics
My mind is racing
I can't sleep
I'm tossed and turning gears
I'm not sure quite what I've become
I face this constant fear
Won't somebody show me?
Will someone make this clear?
I don't want to run anymore
I'm tired of no knowing which way's up
And I'm opening every door
Just waiting on the one that won't slam shut
I've been here before
What's it gonna take to take me home tonight?
I just want to know that I'm alive
I'm not sure where I left my heart
It sure as hell ain't here
Sometimes I feel like I have thrown away
My better years
I've got to get going
My time is running out
I don't want to run anymore
I'm tired of no knowing which way's up
And I'm opening every door
Just waiting on the one that won't slam shut
I've been here before
What's it gonna take to take me home tonight?
I just want to know that I'm alive
I'm at a constant war
Of finding my worth in the things I see around me
Or does my worth come from something so much greater?
I've been running and running
Sacrificing and hurting
Trying to impress my friends and family
Strangers and myself
If I drop everything
If I fall through the floor
If my shoulders aren't strong enough to carry my own head anymore
I just want to know that you'll still love me
If I'm broken
And poor
And alive
'Cause I don't want to run anymore
I've opened up every door
I've been here before
What's it gonna take to take me home?
I don't want to run anymore
I'm tired of no knowing which way's up
And I'm opening every door
Just waiting on the one that won't slam shut
I've been here before
What's it gonna take to take me home tonight?
I just want to know that I'm alive
take me home
I just want to know that I'm alive
