  • I hear 'em talk to me
    But they're not listening
    The words are kerosene
    They don't know who I am
    They'd never understand
    What it's like to be me
    I don't wanna be here
    So stuck inside
    Tell me, how long have I been here?
    I'm losing track of time

    In all this loneliness and all this emptiness
    Been stuck inside this room like a prison sentence
    I'm not gonna stay, tell me there's a way

    High above it all (above it all)
    Victorious, victorious
    Far too long I've grown (far too long)
    In hopelessness, I'm over this
    Don't give up on me (don't give up on me)
    Tell me you believe (tell me you believe)
    I can't face it all (face it all)
    Victorious, victorious

    Oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh

    Can't change this overnight
    Though Heaven knows I've tried
    Here I go again
    I need a savior now
    Someone to break me out
    Who's been the place I've been
    Don't wanna be forgotten
    When I'm dead and gone
    I just wanna be the one who
    Got up and came back strong

    High above it all (above it all)
    Victorious, victorious
    Far too long I've grown (far too long)
    In hopelessness, I'm over this
    Don't give up on me (don't give up on me)
    Tell me you believe (tell me you believe)
    I can't face it all (face it all)
    Victorious, victorious

    Oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh

    Help me 'cause I'm falling
    When I can't sleep, but I'm holding on
    Can't face this night alone

    In all this loneliness and all this emptiness
    Been stuck inside this room like a prison sentence
    I'm not gonna stay
    Tell me there's a way

    High above it all (above it all)
    Victorious, victorious
    Far too long I've grown (far too long)
    In hopelessness, I'm over this
    Don't give up on me (don't give up on me)
    Tell me you believe (tell me you believe)
    I can't face it all (face it all)
    Victorious, victorious

    Oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh Writer/s: Jen Ledger, John Cooper, Korey Cooper, Seth Morrison
