IT'S SWEET... RELEASE

My heart is clear and open

But my mind is packed full

I just can't believe that

You kept my life so dulled

I thought that I loved you

And didn't want to leave

Confused beyond reason

That when I did...

I could breathe

~~~*Chorus*~~~

Now I know what chains feel like

Confinement made me weak

I'm unbound and delivered

Enlightened

Ah...

It's sweet...

Release

~~*~~

I was bone weary...so tired

Those endless flights of stairs

No elevator rides

Miles of winding roads

I walked them day and night

Always such a dreamer

Waiting on the hopeless ride

Pushing on invisible doors

They aren't locked against me

Anymore

~~~*Chorus*~~~

Now I know what chains feel like

Confinement made me weak

I'm unbound and delivered

Enlightened

Yeah free

Ah...

It's sweet...

Release

~~*~~

My heart has been pardoned

I finally comprehend

The walls of your prison

Would have crushed me in the end

I applaud my good fortune

Am thankful for the break

So exhilarating

This blessing 

Some call fate

~~~*Chorus*~~~

Now I know what chains feel like

Confinement made me weak

I'm unbound and delivered

Enlightened

Yeah free

Ah...

It's sweet...

Release

~~*~~
