(Verse 1) I know I've become What you have always feared I'd be A selfish wish I've known Will lead me far from amnesty (Prechorus) Still you think that I don't have the strength to find my way Without you next to me I can honestly say (Chorus) You're holdin me back From what I believe This dream that I wish Will finally be Cause you're holdin me down When I try to see my way from you Now you know.. (Verse 2) When I finally saw a chance I ducked out instantly
I left without a trace and pray that you by chance don't see (Prechorus 2) Still you think that I don't have the strength to find my way Instead of testing me you should truthfully say (Chorus) (Bridge) Away, you don't go away You won't go away You don't seem to realize that My eyes behold your useless scheme To bring me to my wounded knees My silence is but a pause to make Your eyes finally see (Chorus)
