Privilege

Tell me something that I don't know
Show me something to help me grow
Grow with you

Pray my instincts, don't scrutinize
Pray my mistakes, I'll hold them high
High for you

And in the quiet of the morning, I can hear your whispers
But in their suffering, I wonder where you are
And in this moment, I'm reminded of what you came here for
If I'm the hands and feet, then I've failed them

Stay inside
Hide the keys and close your eyes
Privilege
Apathy clothed in disguise

There's only so much I can learn, so much introspection
Before the answers that I seek become self-destruction
So comfortable, living every day to not be miserable
But that's what I've been fed
If you're not helping, then you might as well be dead

That's not who I am and not who I'll be
I'll be slow to speak and listen more carefully
With peace comes the chaos and I've picked my side
I can't prevent pain, but I know that I can cry

All my life, I've lived for me and what that means, oh
And perhaps who I am is not for me to know
They say that words can only carry who you are for so long
I chose the silence and begin the change

(Stay inside)
(Stay inside)
(Stay inside)
(Stay inside)

(Stay inside)
(Stay inside)
(Stay inside)
(Stay inside)

Stay inside
(Tell me something that I don't know)
Hide the keys and close your eyes
(Show me something to help me grow)
Privilege
(Grow with you)
Apathy clothed in disguise
Stay inside
(Pray my instincts, don't scrutinize)
Hide the keys and close your eyes
(Pray my mistakes, I'll hold them high)
Privilege
(High for you)
Apathy clothed in disguise
