Well I'm beginning to think, that this was all a part of your plan.
Just to knock me down again and again, then turn and save me.
And I've seen it now and then, the way that your pretend to be my savior.
So this is it, this is my only chance.
I'm gonna start again, but this time on my own.
And there will never be another day,
I know the games you play,
You'll never call me home again.
Well, I finally cut the tethers that hold me down to this.
Remind me why I chose to hide instead of rising up to shake my fist,
At the world, for taking what was mine.
And I see it all the time, but not this time.
So this is it, this is my only chance.
I'm gonna start again, but this time on my own.
And there will never be another day,
I know the games you play,
You'll never call me home again.
There were times when you'd call me your home.
Now my heart is as hard as a stone.
(Please just let me go.)
I wanna be alone.
Cause I can do this on my own.
There'll be no stopping me this time.
I'm gonna live like I'm alive.
