No Way Out
Home Grown Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Smoking the shit.
Daily habit Dream to forget my dark secrets
Hating my self
My lifes gone to hell
Innocence lost but at what cost
Realizing now there's no way out, no way out.

Awake in bed, with thoughts in my head
Of every moment, all at once disillusion.
As time passes by, I'm living a lie
I've forgotten who I am all my roots are gone




I know this life is wrong
There's no way out, no way out

Good song. The recording sounds very digital though.
