Lyrics

Won’t you join me for a ride this ivory staircase I glide
Through these memories keeping me locked inside

I’d ask you to hold my hand but it’s kinda busy So just open your eyes and see what you're gonna see

Performing open heart surgery on these splinters
Cuz I never set ‘em free beware what you bury inside
It just might bury you alive

Hey there you I see you moved into my room
Think you’ll be here awhile I really like your style
Need someone pretty and cool for me to look up to See round here people come and they go can I just Live in your shadow

It’s all swirling around me while I disappear
The background my secret refuge the hell did I cling to

Am I safe has this all washed away
You are free the only way out is through I’m coming to get you
Well I wanna know where did my hero go
He tells the stories that earn him the biggest reward

But behind his eyes there’s nothing but ice
It’s all for show how many can he get on his side

Well I’se your doll baby though I’se just a child
I had my own will entrapped and beguiled
You painted right over my colors with your gray
But what’s mine is mine was never yours to take

Oh, oh
What tragedy woven into my tapestry
It’s hold on me only as deep as I let it be
I dig through the dirt and gather my pearls and
Learn To Fly

“The only way out is through. I'm coming to get you.”
