lyrics

I caught myself today in the mirror
I didn’t like who I saw
I stared into my reflection
I didn’t recognize him at all

Which led to a bounty of questions
And none ever carried a modicum of truth
I see I’ve let myself go
Watched years and years unfold
And all I’m looking at is the proof

And I’ve been looking, hoping, praying for shelter
But all I’ve found is the cold I’ve been running from

I’ve been making friends with my demons
Found out too late what they want from me in the end
And my life so far
I’ve spent
Trying to drown them
But it turns out they all know how to swim

And I’ve been looking, hoping, praying for shelter
But all I’ve found is the cold I’ve been running from
I’ve been looking, hoping, praying for shelter
And now I know
This ain’t place where I belong

In all my running I just keep losing more and more
Maybe losing’s all I’m good for
Or maybe I should just keep running

Maybe I should keep running

Maybe I should keep running

I came here looking, hoping, praying for shelter
But all I’ve found is the cold I’ve been running from
Came here looking, hoping, praying for shelter
And now I know
This isn’t a place where I belong

Came here

Looking, hoping, praying

Looking, hoping, praying
