Day by day
Night after night
my heart breaks
My mind is filled with fright
As I sit here and watch
My life crumble away
I try to catch it
But there is nothing to make it sway
I work so hard
I try and try
I guess I just played the wrong card
I fall to my knees as I cry
I beg you please
Just let me be
I just want my peace
PLEASE SET ME FREE
In the end there is nothing more to do
I sit there and watch
As I stare at my hands where my life falls through
Unable to stop it, unable to slow it down
It all breaks like clay
In the end just crumbling away
