[Verse 1]

How was I supposed to know

The way that I was meant to go

When it's easier the hard way

It's easy to be led astray

I worry for the space between

Where I am and where I want to be

It feels like it's killing me

All the lives that I'll never lead

Am I all alone in this?

Playing out all the htings I've missed?

I wonder what I could have been

If I was just a little different then

​[Chorus]

Always afraid to lose this shell

This vision of myself

But I want to now

Just to free myself

Always thought that

I'd missed my chance

Never thought that I'd find my path

But now it's clear

Don't leave me here

​[Verse 2]

So long been defined

By a life that was never mine

I can't take the solitude

I think I'd rather go with you

Have I found a guiding light

All alone in the dead of night?

Tell me this was meant for me

Tell me I'm the one you need

​[Chorus]

Always afraid to lose this shell

This vision of myself

But I want to now

Just to free myself

Always thought that

I'd missed my chance

Never thought that I'd find my path

But now it's clear

Don't leave me here

[Verse 3]

You give me a reason

I'll do whatever you say

I've been so alone down here

Show me the way

You give me a reason

I'll do whatever you say

I've been so alone down here

Take me away
