    Recorded live at the Hangout on May 3, 2002
    Credits: written by Ray De La Cruz

    Story Behind the Song
    The motivation for this song was simply Jesus Christ. The lyrics are about the feelings of self-pride and putting "I" ahead of God. If things aren't going good for you then take a hard look at yourself. You may find that "I" is trying to live without Him.
    Simular to "My Own Prison" by Creed in that respect.

    This is a live recording from "The Hangout" in Hayward, California with Brad Barth at the controls.

    Lyrics
    I
    1 Peter 5:6

    (verse I)
    I just want to get away

    And I, feel like I’m walking dead

    I can feel this rope bridge sway

    and I can feel fear make its’ way to my heart

    (pre-chorus)
    Too many roles to play, I am coming undone

    swimming in pride, losing stride, I am jumping the gun

    what God has begun, I have come to start taking apart

    feeling the dread, realizing, the wrongs I have done…

    (chorus)
    Nothing can happen when you’re an island to yourself
    You’re only a prisoner, when you don’t face Truth
    Life is just pained, when all you do is just go astray
    That’s why you’ve got to let God lead…

    (verse II)
    I have to face another day

    But I just want to run away, don’t want to feel anymore…

    And I, I know I’ve got to face my fears

    and I, know that God is there to wipe the tears away…

    pre-chorus
    bridge
    lead
    chorus
