Slaves

(Introduction) this one’s for all of you, anyone that’s felt lonely, anyone that’s made mistakes, for anyone who wants to find their way no matter what it takes

If you’re anything like me, you’ve felt the sting of disappointment, you’ve been the failed king anointed, feeling just as let down as you’ve let everyone else down

(Pre-chorus) you wake up each cloudy day just wishing to find a some way to finally learn to say that you’re happy

(Chorus) you are not alone! You don’t have to carry the weight without help in order to atone, you hold it all inside and think someday you’ll be fine, but you feel like you’re lying

You are not alone! You shut your eyes, try not to slip, grab onto that steering wheel in a white knuckle grip, just take a beat and try to stop and see

You, have, me!

(Verse) I did it all before, too, going through life just born to lose, no part of my ego left to bruise, no halfway decent options left to choose, trapped in a prison of my own making, no glass half full in sight for the taking

It didn’t work for me, and it won’t work for you, knock on my door and lay down your burdens and take some time with me

(Repeat pre-chorus)

(Repeat chorus)

(Pre-outro) so quit closing your eyes, everything you lock up inside, we are not the slaves of our mistakes, I’ve learned it’s never ever too late, so take a breath and see

You, have, me!

(Instrumental outro)
