Lyrics

They said, pack your things
You're getting out
Didn't say where
Didn't say how
My heart hit fast
I felt it break
I thought I'd get to see my mom that day
Bag in my hands
I didn't speak
Didn't wanna jinx it
Didn't wanna think
First time in weeks
I felt that air
Like maybe someone still cared
Don't let this be another lie
Don't let this fall apart this time
I held my breath the whole way out
Waiting for my name called out
They said I'm discharged
I'm finally free
The sunlight hit
But it's not for me
No open arms
No familiar face
It was just another ride to another place
Saw the car, before I saw the truth
Black and white, no room to move
Backseat was cold, no one spoke
That's when everything broke
Door shut hard, I felt it sink
Every second made me think
This ain't home, this ain't right
I'm just leaving for one more fight
Same road, different cage
Same script, different page
I should've known, I should've seen
Freedom's not what they mean
They said I'm discharged
I'm finally free
The sunlight hit
But it's not for me
No open arms
No familiar face
It was just another ride to another place
Don't say free if I'm still locked inside
Don't say help if it feels like this
You dressed it up just to hide the chain
Different walls, same fucking pain
They said I'm discharged
I'm finally free
But freedom never came for me
No way out, just shifted space
I'm still a ghost, just in a different place
They said I'm discharged, I'm finally free
That word don't mean a thing to me
No open arms, no saving grace
It's just another stop in the same damn place
