I wish I could just let the sun inspire me
Instead I have only got the night to think
I am not the shadow caught on your heel

I'll make the lights dance to how I feel

tell me this place is safe

tell me this place is sound
tell me this place is safe
tell me this place is sound

tell me this place is safe
tell me this place is sound
tell me this place is safe

tell me this place is sound

say the words and I'm gone.

the world knows its on the tip of your tongue
it's on the tip of your tongue
If we never speak then we will never progress

wasn't home supposed to be where the heart is
say the words and I'm gone
just say the words and I'm gone


as a son, as a brother, as a man I've failed another time.
I could've been better to you, you just gave me so much to prove


you've condemned what you don't understand
you've condemned what you don't understand


say the words and I'm gone.
the world knows its on the tip of your tongue

it's on the tip of your tongue
If we never speak then we will never progress
wasn't home supposed to be where the heart is

say the words and I'm gone
just say the words


a bitter man can only live
a better man will find love
this is what I'd hope you'd find inside


what's a man to his son


It looks like I'm better than what you made me out to be
you have made me this way
