Exodus Lyrics - Evanescence

My black backpack's stuffed with broken dreams 

Twenty bucks should get me through the week 

Never said a word of discontentment 

Thought it a thousand times but now I'm leaving home 

Here in the shadows 

I'm safe, I'm free 

I've nowhere else to go but 

I cannot stay where I don't belong 

Two months pass by and it's getting cold 

I know I'm not lost, I'm 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 nowhere else to go but 

I cannot stay where I don't belong
