Grow
Advent Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wanna bleed
I wanna, let you know
I be wanna be there
I wanna see
I wanna, let you grow
I am so confused
Need to break through,
What's only meant for few
Can't feel unreal
Can't look them in the eye
Can't run can't hide
From the lies inside
All I have
It pulls away at
All I gave
It is because
I wanna breathe
I wanna bleed
I wanna, let you know
I be wanna be there
I wanna see
I wanna, let you grow
Although things may not ever change
The feelings never rearrange
Be you, be free
You're everything to me
Need to abuse
I seem to always lose
Need to shut down
What's lost and can't be found
Can't be a lie
I cannot be caught
Can't be alive
Knowing how hard I fought
All I have
It pulls away at
All I gave
It is because
I wanna breathe
I wanna bleed
I wanna, let you know
I be wanna be there
I wanna see
I wanna, let you grow
Although things may not ever change
The feelings never rearrange
Be you, be free
Where is my mind?
It's left behind
Why am I blind?
Inside can't find
Where is the time?
(I seem to know)
Now is the time
Because
I wanna breathe
I wanna bleed
I wanna, let you know
I be wanna be there
I wanna see
I wanna, let you grow
Although things may not ever change
The feelings never rearrange
Be you, be free
You're everything to me
Be you, be free
You're everything to me
Be you, be free
