Lyrics
When I flip out the lights, I come in focus
Streetlight that paints, my window wall
In the mood of my room? I get my days? reflection.
The misquote that I heard but, didn?t challenge.
Things I said I?d do but, didn?t do
I dig deeper in my pocket of excuses
As my day is growing shorter, all I do is watch it pass.
Pass thirty and here fall all the worries,
What?s my success, am I married?
Sweet moma she means well but, what does she deliver?
I can?t let my fear of living, take away my right to live
(Chorus)
I?m saying goodbye to all my fears
Cause it?s just too much to hold
Now I lay to rest my theory
I walk away from who I was
In the tunnel of fear
