Let Me Be

I'm through with living in these and shackles and chains, erase me now, set me free from this world, where blood pours and tears rain, to a land of love, set me free from these chains, I’m through with living a life of which i do not belong, erase me now, let my life begin, in a world thats just right, where there is no wrong, let me for once feel that i finally belong, I'm through with this life that carries on forever, erase me now, show me my end, let my soul and my body escape together, no part of living says you'll live forever, I’m through with living in the land of the blind, erase me now, let me see where i lay, forget who i was, my true soul i must find, open up the world to which once i was blind, I’m through with living I’m done with the hate, erase me now, let my true love embrace, let me not change my future, let me accept my fate, show me how to be, teach me not of hate. I'm through with living where i can not be me, erase me now let me delve ever deeper, let my mind dance let my heart run free, where i think not of them, I proclaim of only me. I'm through with living, my time is now, erase me now, to never be forgotten, to escape from this world, just show me how, the end is finally here, my time is now. darkness will fall, bring my eyes to rest, darkness will fall, no beat in my chest, peace it will bring, to finally be me, peace it will bring, to finally be free.
