Lyrics
Release Me
I wake, I crave, I draw the line and swear to God,
I'd rather die than to be here again.
And on my knees, I beg once more remove this need, forget the score
but my promises fade
The weakest parts of me emerge when my obsessions fuel this urge
Please let me release me from this life I want to turn back time
If I could ever find the cure, rip out the hunger, I endure.
Just to get through the day
And finally hush those deafening cries who tried to pry open my eyes
Numbed illusion fantasies drown who I want to be
Please release me from this life
A shadow cloud a midnight run another lie to seal this vault,
but on Sunday I'll pray
My shameful painful bleeding out has wrestled me against the ground
Crushed, my true voice never heard, my rosy visions blur when I face the world
A clean and clear, rare sober day to spark a flame that lights my way
hope tonight it don't rain
Please release me from this life I want to turn this tide
No more bitter fallen tears, no shattered dreams to fear
Please release from this life
The final straw draws one last breath I wake and lean to what it says
hope I'll listen today.
