I’m tired of all your chains.
You can’t always protect me from the pain.
All your shackles, all your words pull me down.
Don’t leave me here where I’ll never be found.

Release me. Release me.
I know I’m trapped alone in this world.
Release me. Release me.
I can’t handle this anymore.

Once I thought I needed you.
You took me up and brought me through.
I gave you trust, I gave you love, I thought you gave me back my life,
But you stole from me what was keeping me alive.

Release me. Release me.
I know I’m trapped alone in this world.
Release me. Release me.
I can’t handle this anymore.

No more pain, I’m leaving tonight.
Don’t try; I know I’ll win this fight.

Release me. Release me.
I know I’m trapped alone in this world.
Release me. Release me.
I can’t handle this anymore.
