Exile - Elwood Stray

They call me coward, they call me fake

Searching for reasons to keep up their hate

But I am gone to a place where I’m alone

Where I feel home

This is my exile

Being alone is a pleasure, a privilege

Keeping all people away from my feelings

Surrounded by nothing, finally feeling free

But still missing something

When will I feel more than nothing

When will I be myself again

If not here where will I ever get the chance

To be like I want to be

Now I know I’m not alone

Please take my hand

Cause I know why we all need our exile

While I was searching through the pictures that

Should show myself

I just saw some memories of people that I don’t know

Acting friendly, acting like they would care

But still I feel like I’ve ever been in the wrong place

Now I know I’m not alone

Please take my hand

Cause I know why we all need our exile

There are more than me

We are more than just a silenced minority

Together we are stronger than anything

We are, one family

This is our exile

You are not alone

Raise up your voice

Raise up your fist

We are one massive wave

We raise up our voices

Raise up our fists

We will be heard

Now I know, I’m not alone

Cause I know why we need our exile

Cause I know why we all need our exile

Now I know, I’m not alone

Please take my hand

Cause I know why

Cause I know why

Exile
