Pain is Not the Answer (Let Me Go, Set Me Free) - March 14, 2011
I’m looking so far out.
(In, out, up , down)
So far up, so far down.
(This way, that way, any damn way)
I can’t see past the blinding light.
(The light that’s so bright)
It’s hard to find a simple path.
(All of them have broken me)
I’m falling into shards of glass.
(See my fury, feel my wrath)
CHORUS:
I’d rather die than face this pain.
(Push me hard, put me down the drain)
I’d rather die than face this pain.
(There’s no pain in the rain)
I’d rather drown in light than in hate.
(See me charge up, watch me quake)
Pain is not the answer for me.
Let me go, set me free.
[LAST TIME ONLY]
I’m falling, falling
Into broken dreams.
Pain is not the answer,
no not for me.
Let me go, set me free.
Set me free...
Nothing ever goes away.
(It’s all right here, right now)
I can’t seem to escape.
(You’re trapped here in reality)
Gotta wake up and cease the world.
(I’m tired of being a helpless child)
I’m looking so far out.
(In, out, up, down)
I’m falling into shards of glass.
(See my fury, feel my wrath)
(TO CHORUS)
Just need to wake up,
Get myself out of reality.
Spinning down, down, down.
Gonna fall into broken dreams.
No! I can’t give up yet.
I can’t drown in love or hate.
I must be myself.
Pain is not the answer for me.
Let me go, set me free.
(TO CHORUS)
