Lyrics

I've tried believing,
In the faith that what's been heeded,
You've always said that it's been coming down,
I've started hearing things that maybe you're misleading,
When I came to you, you'd go round,

Now I want to say,

So if you think you can try,
To keep me where you need me,
You'll be wondering where I am,
Just as I am leaving,
No long goodbyes,
You won't even see me,
As I start to walk away,
Your'e already beneath me,

Vision's stole what I don't want to see,
That I'm just another piece inside a big machine,
You have said that you can see,
That I will never get to where I want to be,

But I won't lose to my surroundings,
I'm gonna make my own way,
No matter what you say,
I'm am seeing my surroundings,
And it's a lot that I won't stay,

I've been told that,
I don't have the patience or the,
Ability to keep my feelings down,
But I know deep inside,
You push me down and I'm back again,
You won't break my stride,

Now the places change the names don't mean,
Anything because you'll never know just where you'll be,
And if you don't know I can't explain,
There's just apart of me that needs a change of scene,

But I won't lose to my surroundings,
I'm gonna make my own way,
No matter what you say,
I'm am seeing my surroundings,
And it's a lot that I won't stay,

But I won't lose to my surroundings,
I'm gonna make my own way,
No matter what you say,
I'm am seeing my surroundings,
And it's a lot that I won't stay,

Now the places change the names don't mean,
Anything because you'll never know just where you'll be,
And if you don't know I can't explain,
There's just apart of me that needs a change of scene,

But I won't lose to my surroundings,
I'm gonna make my own way,
No matter what you say,
I'm am seeing my surroundings,
And it's a lot that I won't stay,

But I won't lose to my surroundings,
I'm gonna make my own way,
No matter what you say,
I'm am seeing my surroundings,
And it's a lot that I won't stay,
