Lyrics 
I've given up on giving up slowly
I'm blending in so You won't even know me
Apart from this whole world that shares my fate

But the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair
And I'm begging You, I'm begging You, I'm begging You
And I'm begging You, I'm begging You, I'm begging You
So were You
And all I'm asking is for You to do what You can with me
I fought You for so long
I'm blending in so You won't even know me

I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
But so were You
And I'm begging You, I'm begging You, I'm begging You
He's told me the way and I'm trying to get there
And I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity
‘Cause I'm afraid that this complacency is something I can't shake
And I've been locked inside that house all the while you hold the key
And I've been dying to get out, that might be the death of me
I am a hostage to my own humanity
I admit that I'm every bit deserving
I gotta get outta here
I've gotta get outta here
I'm giving up on doing this alone now
Oh how we regret those things we do
To be my escape
To be my escape
‘Cause I've failed and I'm ready to be shown how
And I've been locked inside that house all the while You hold the key
And even though there's no way in knowing
And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me
Because I know to live you must give your life away
And all I was trying to do
I gotta get outta here
I've given up on giving up slowly
I've gotta get outta here
And this life sentence that I'm serving
Where to go I promise I'm going because
I gotta get outta here
Self-detained and forced to live in this mess I've made
‘Cause I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity
But I can't ask You to give what You already gave
And even though there's no way in knowing
Was save my own skin
This one last bullet you mention
Where to go I promise I'm going because
And even though there's no way in knowing
‘Cause I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity
To be my escape
I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
Where to go I promise I'm going because
I should have let You in
And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me
And I've been locked inside that house all the while You hold the key
I gotta get outta here
Apart from this whole world that shares my fate
Is my one last shot at redemption
