Song lyrics

Are you ready?

I'm a rose that's been raised by wolves
My thorns are getting stuck in everything I know
It's so hard when you would bleed for the truth you know
But we don't want the truth, we just want control

I'm on my own
Here we go

C'mon man, put it on me
If you want it
'Cause I'm sick and tired of all of this
Flaunt it, if you want it
And you can own it
But I'm just going to let it go

[Chorus:]
I've seen the devil and I've met fear
I met them both on the road that lead me here
I've met god and I saw life
And he saved mine a million times
I've met trouble and I've met rain
Laughed with joy and cried with pain
But now I see and I believe
That the ghosts that haunt me have been outhaunted

I'm a long way from way back home
Been travelling like a bullet everywhere I go
It gets harder to reach when you're in control
'Cause you've either got the money or it's got your soul

I'm on my own
Here we go

C'mon man, put it on me
If you want it
'Cause I'm sick and tired of all of this
Flaunt it, if you want it
And you can own it
But I'm just going to let it go

[Chorus:]
I've seen the devil and I've met fear
I met them both on the road that lead me here
I've met god and I saw life
And he saved mine a million times
I've met trouble and I've met rain
Laughed with joy and cried with pain
But now I see and I believe
That the ghosts that haunt me have been outhaunted

They never told me that I could be
Free from the hate that's inside of me
They took my place, took my dignity
They kept me caged like an enemy
But I know now I can be
Free from the pain that's inside of me
You took my place, give me air to breathe
Opened the cage and you set me free

[Chorus:]
I've seen the devil and I've met fear
I met them both on the road that lead me here
I've met god and I saw life
And he saved mine a million times
I've met trouble and I've met rain
Laughed with joy and cried with pain
But now I see and I believe
That the ghosts that haunt me have been outhaunted
