Exodus - Evanescence

My black backpack's stuffed with broken dreams
20 bucks should get me through the week
Never said a word of discontentment
Fought it a thousand times but now I'm leaving home

Here in the shadows
I'm safe
I'm free
I've no where else to go but I cannot stay where I don't belong

2 months pass by and it's getting cold
I know I'm not lost
I am just alone
But I won't cry 
I won't give up
I can't go back now
Waking up is knowing who you really are

Here in the shadows
I'm safe
I'm free
I've no place to go but I cannot stay where I don't belong

In the shadows 
I'm safe
I'm free
I've no place to go but I cannot stay here, oh

Show me the shadow where true meaning lies
So much more dismay in empty eyes
