If I were to say The words on my mind The words that you pray I won't Would it change Change a thing at all Cause I've grown up and I found out The world you called so pure Was an ocean of hurt and a torrent of pain I did not deserve And I'm drowning in a sea of faces I know it isn't here but I don't know where my place is I won't try to get in I will just let you win Let me go Let me go I won't fight you can win We can leave it here and just pretend I'm not And I never was I know you love my soul But you hate the things I do I know you feel afraid But my courage comes from you You always taught me to be strong And stand up when I saw wrong And this is wrong it's all wrong Houses of the holy Hold nothing left for me I've made peace with the devil inside But the devil ain't on my mind I surrender this fight that never ends I hate that you fight your fear in me I will just let you win Let me go Let me go I won't fight you can win We can leave it here and just pretend I'm not And I never was Mother I want your love Mother don't keep me out Mama I'm still your son Mother I've just got doubts Say you won't forget my face Say you won't forget my place in your heart
