Em 
There's gotta be another way out  
C 
I've been stuck in a cage with my doubt 
G                          Am 
I've tried forever getting out on my own 
Em 
But every time I do this my way  
C 
I get caught in the lies of the enemy 
G 
I lay my troubles down  
    Am 
I'm ready for you now. 


  
         Em 
Bring me out 
              C                  G 
come and find me in the dark now 
              Am                Em 
Everyday by myself I'm breaking down

My God I need a hope I can't deny

I was never meant to fight on my own

You're so much bigger than the world I've made 
Em 
So I surrender my soul

I'm reaching out for your hope

I lay my weapons down  
A 
I'm ready for you now.
