The Release

The Release
Say the words and play the fool
Plug your nose and eat the gruel
Save your thinking for the rest
They know what's best
So don't act strange and never change
Or rearrange yourself

Even though the problem's gone
Part of me cannot move on
A blank stare is what remains
A blank stare is all that's...

Lost before a search
Pain before relief
Conflicted resolution
Tension before

Release me, I can't live on this way
Choke all the lies I'm breathing
Release

I sold you and you sold me
Our freedom is our slavery
Your crime is in your thoughts
And how it rots
Don't understand that it was planned
Who had a hand in it

The minority of one
Cannot ever get things done
Don't ask me, I'm just one man
Don't ask me, I am just...
