Byway
All of my life I've been trying to find
Someone who'll love me through the lies
That I have told to make myself feel I belong
Here
I was looking for love everywhere
Believing everyone who told me they cared
I tried to please them no matter the cost
But in the end it's You I lost
So why do I walk this road that leads to pain and sorrow?
Well I know now the byway's best
'Cause You have given me rest
They say you've got to find yourself
While persuading you to be somebody else
Now I'm trapped inside who I've made myself to be
Oh where can I find release?
And why do I walk this road that leads to pain and sorrow?
Well I know now the byway's best
'Cause You have given me rest
