Lyrics
0:39Like walking into a dream so unlike what you've seen
0:43So unsure but it seems cause we've been waiting for you
0:48Fallen into this place just giving you a small taste
0:52Of your afterlife here so stay you'll be back here soon anyway
0:58I see a distant light but girl this can't be right
1:07Such a surreal place to see so how did this come to be
1:13Arrived too early
1:16And when I think of all the places I just don't belong
1:20I've come to grips with life and realize this is going too far
1:25I don't belong here we gotta move on dear escape from this afterlife
1:35Cause this time I'm right to move on and on far away from here
1:44A place of hope and no pain perfect skies with no rain
1:48Can leave this place but refrain cause we've been waiting for you
1:52Fallen into this place just giving you a small taste
1:56Of your afterlife here so stay you'll be back here soon anyway
2:02This peace on earth's not right (With my back against the wall)
2:07No pain or sign of time (I'm much too young to fall)
2:11So out of place don't wanna stay I feel wrong and that's my sign
2:17I've made up my mind
2:20Gave me your hand but realize I just wanna say goodbye
2:23Please understand I have to leave and carry on my own life
2:30I don't belong here I gotta move on dear escape from this afterlife
2:39Cause this time I'm right to move on and on far away from here
2:46Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you
2:52This place full of peace and light and I'd hope you might
2:58Take me back inside when the time is right
3:24Loved ones back home all crying cause they're already missing me
3:32I pray by the grace of God that there's somebody listening
3:41Give me a chance to be that person I wanna be
3:46(I am unbroken; I'm choking on this ecstasy)
3:50Oh Lord I'll try so hard but you gotta let go of me
3:55(Unbreak me unchain me I need another chance to live)
5:01I don't belong here I gotta move on dear escape from this afterlife
5:09Cause this time I'm right to move on and on far away from here
5:17Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you
5:23This place full of peace and light and I'd hope you might
5:30Take me back inside when the time is right
Like walking into a dream so unlike what you've seen So unsure but it seems cause we've been waiting for you Fallen into this place just giving you a small taste Of your afterlife here so stay you'll be back here soon anyway I see a distant light but girl this can't be right Such a surreal place to see so how did this come to be Arrived too early And when I think of all the places I just don't belong I've come to grips with life and realize this is going too far I don't belong here we gotta move on dear escape from this afterlife Cause this time I'm right to move on and on far away from here A place of hope and no pain perfect skies with no rain Can leave this place but refrain cause we've been waiting for you Fallen into this place just giving you a small taste Of your afterlife here so stay you'll be back here soon anyway This peace on earth's not right (With my back against the wall) No pain or sign of time (I'm much too young to fall) So out of place don't wanna stay I feel wrong and that's my sign I've made up my mind Gave me your hand but realize I just wanna say goodbye Please understand I have to leave and carry on my own life I don't belong here I gotta move on dear escape from this afterlife Cause this time I'm right to move on and on far away from here Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you This place full of peace and light and I'd hope you might Take me back inside when the time is right Loved ones back home all crying cause they're already missing me I pray by the grace of God that there's somebody listening Give me a chance to be that person I wanna be (I am unbroken; I'm choking on this ecstasy) Oh Lord I'll try so hard but you gotta let go of me (Unbreak me unchain me I need another chance to live) I don't belong here I gotta move on dear escape from this afterlife Cause this time I'm right to move on and on far away from here Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you This place full of peace and light and I'd hope you might Take me back inside when the time is right
