Shinedown Searchlight Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm a new soul, workin' my way down an old road
Asphalt churches all around
Roots break through this deep foundation
Can't find my place on solid ground

[Pre-Chorus]
No one taught me how to let go
Been hangin' by a thread on a tightrope
And you can't speak what you don't know
That's for sure

[Chorus]
So, don't wait up for me, I don't need
Your searchlight
While you're fast asleep, I'm runnin' free
Yeah, it's alright
I know you had a plan, but that's not who I am
I don't know where I'll land
But I don't need
Your searchlight to see anymore

[Verse 2]
Raindrops fall, and they feel like the open ocean
Spiderwebs shimmer in the dark
These movies play out in slow motion
Cobwebs linger in the heart

[Pre-Chorus]
No one taught me how to let go Been hangin' by a thread on a tightrope
But you can still learn what you don't know
That's for sure

[Chorus]
So, don't wait up for me, I don't need
Your searchlight
While you're fast asleep, I'm runnin' free
Yeah, it's alright
I know you had a plan, but that's not who I am
I don't know where I'll land
But I don't need
Your searchlight to see anymore

[Bridge]
I'm a new soul, workin' my way down an old road
Just lookin' for a place on solid ground

[Outro]
So, don't wait up for me, I don't need
Your searchlight
While you're fast asleep, I'm runnin' free
Yeah, it's alright
I know you had a plan, but that's not who I am
I don't know where I'll land
But I don't need
Your searchlight to see anymore
