I Am Free

(album: The Way We Rust - 2017)

Lying bare across the floor
Can't take this silence anymore
And it feels like I've lost control

How many times I've said I'd quit?
Each morning looking in the mirror as my reflection makes me sick
I can't recall just what I did
I'm sure as hell it wasn't pretty and I laid my words on thick
Right in your spine, my rigid knife
All this contempt for something smirky that you said the other night
Yes, I'm diseased and I'm to blame
Give me a shot, I swear to god I'll become livid at the sound of your name

Oh, God please tie this rope tight
A noose that fits just right
Oh, God please tie this rope tight
Hold my head upright
Take this knife across my throat
And make amends for all my lies

Lying bare across the floor
Can't take this silence anymore
And it feels like I've lost control
I've lost control

This is the last time that I'll walk ashamed of my choices
This emptiness feeding my future to flames
This is the day I will finally be free of these demons
Addictions that keep me in chains
I am free

Oh, God please tie this rope tight
A noose that fits just right
Oh, God please tie this rope tight
Hold my head upright
Take this knife across my throat
And make amends for all my lies

Lying bare across the floor
Can't take this silence anymore
And it feels like I've lost control

This is the last time that I'll walk ashamed of my choices
This emptiness feeding my future to flames
This is the day I will finally be free of these demons
Addictions that keep me in chains
I am free

Oh, God please tie this rope tight
(Lying bare across the floor, can't take this silence anymore)
A noose that fits just right
(And it feels like I've lost control)

This is the last time that I'll walk ashamed of my choices
This emptiness feeding my future to flames
This is the day I will finally be free of these demons
Addictions that keep me in chains
I am free
