Lyrics

Release Myself

I don't wanna be scared anymore I'm tired of being tied down And too cynical to believe Anything new I can only release myself I can only release myself Got a lot to be forgiven for Give a lot of hell I don't wanna be wrong I don't wanna disappear If anything should come along And make me brave I wanna see it Don't wanna lie In the morning it'll be fine I can only release myself I can only release myself Got a lot to be forgiven for Give a lot of hell I can only release myself I can only release myself Got a lot to be remembered for Give a lot of hell I wanna see it Don't wanna lie I wanna see it Don't wanna lie I wanna see it Hey Hey Ooh I can only release myself I can only release myself Got a lot to be remembered for Give a lot of hell I can only release myself I can only release myself Got a lot to be forgiven for Give a lot of hell
