Just Let Me Go

++++++++++++++

You're like an anchor pulling me down

My head's underwater and I've started to drown

I don't think you realize that you're suffocating me

Just let me go 'cuz I need to be free.

Release me into yesterday without all the strings

For too long now, you've been clipping my wings

I don't think you know that you're smothering me

Just let me go cuz I need to fly free.

Just let me go

Please let me be

Your fingers have choked

All the life out of me

Just let me go

Just set me free

I'm dying and drowning

Please let me be

I should probably hate you after all that you've done

But I find I feel only pity and an urge to run

Run from your iron grip fueled by oppression

Just let me go and end this obsession.

You constantly remind me of a ball and chain

Keeping me prisoner and causing me pain

Maybe you're blind and simply didn't see

Just let me go, please set me free.

Just let me go

Please let me be

Your fingers have choked

All the life out of me

Just let me go

Just set me free

I'm dying and drowning

Please let me be

I can't breathe underwater

Nor fly oppressed.

I can't run with the chains

Nor free what you've suppressed.

Just let me go

Please say we're through

Because I'm dying and tired

Of drowning in you.
