We have been chained by our past, our pain and/or some form of addiction. This song is empowering us to grow out of the unpleasant environment and enjoy a new beginning.
lyrics
Intro
Verse 1
I've been this road before
A hundred times or more
Something that was lost
I tried hard to ignore
Refrain
I don't know me anymore
I'm like a stranger in my own
Home lately
So I'm walking out that door
Chorus
So goodbye, no see you later
I won't be back
So don't wait up, when I'm gone
Verse 2
A lot of things been said
That's sometimes hard to take
Well this is the new me
No lie of words can upset me
And I'm keeping my distance
Repeat Chorus 2x
Bridge
So it's been a long time
That you have ruled my mind
But I've finally seen the light
And found new freedom in my life
It wasn't nice, no, knowing you
If I, if I only knew
I would have sang this song to you
Before I even met you
Repeat Chorus 4x
When I'm gone
