I took back the moment
From years of imagining ghosts
Living in reflections
Called home
Look through the window
White noise is the light
In disguise
In fight or flight
From the monsters
In my mind
I looked to the sky
As I longed
Dreaming of being someone
Living to dance in the sun
Don't hold me down
Trapped in your wall of sound
And I just can't stay
I just can't stay
I saw myself
In somebody else's face
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I knew it was poison
Injected it into my soul
Knowing I may never
Let it go
Bound hand and foot
And obsessed with a future
In time
Seeing a projection
A collective mind
Are you no longer afraid
Of how you are being portrayed
For the mistakes
You have made
Don't hold me down
Trapped in your wall of sound
And I just can't stay
I just can't stay
I saw myself
In somebody else's face
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
You said that life
Would go on
And pain from the past
I prolong
As time belongs
To no one
I looked to the sky
As I longed
Dreaming of being someone
Living to dance in the sun
Don't hold me down
Trapped in your wall of sound
And I just can't stay
I just can't stay
I saw myself
In somebody else's face
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
