Outlet for My Heart

Verse 1 I know my eyes get stormy When the pressure starts to rise But I’m not made of violence I’m just trying to survive I don’t wanna break the room down I don’t wanna leave a scar I just need somewhere to pour this When it’s too much in my heart Pre-Chorus So let me cry into the ceiling Let me scream into the rain Let me write it on the paper Till I recognize my name Chorus I’m not gonna hurt nobody When I fall apart I just need an outlet To release my heart I’m not dangerous, I’m drowning Trying to find a spark Please don’t fear the thunder I’m just releasing my heart Verse 2 Sometimes my mind’s a hallway With every door on fire And I don’t need a lecture I need somewhere safe and quiet I’m faithful to the healing But healing isn’t clean Sometimes peace looks like shaking On the floor where no one sees Pre-Chorus So let me run until I’m empty Let me sing until I’m sore Let me turn this pain to music So it doesn’t live here anymore Chorus I’m not gonna hurt nobody When I fall apart I just need an outlet To release my heart I’m not dangerous, I’m drowning Trying to find a spark Please don’t fear the thunder I’m just releasing my heart Bridge I need paint on my fingers I need ink on the page I need drums in my chest I need a name for this rage Not to aim it at a body Not to burn another soul Just to open up the floodgate And let the river go Final Chorus I’m not gonna hurt nobody When I fall apart I just need an outlet To release my heart Hold the light in the doorway While I come back from the dark I’m not trying to destroy love I’m just releasing my heart Outro I’m not a weapon I’m a wound that wants to heal I’m not a danger I’m just trying to feel I’m not gonna hurt nobody I just need somewhere to start Give me music, give me mercy Give me an outlet for my heart
