Song Lyrics

I've been running such a long time
I've been hiding from the truth
I've been battered, been broken, been buried
Now I'm death proof, death proof

And I've been known to take a big chance
But I can't waste another shot at redemption
Oh, I'm ready don't let me go passing
Through the wrong hands, wrong hands
My confidence is in crisis mode
Your fingertips well they know the code

Release me and take another piece of me
And there won't be another left
C'mon release me, release me take another piece of me
And there won't be another left unless you let go
Unless you let go

I've been waiting for the sun to shine
Another winter ends, the winter's starting over
We met beside a land mine waiting for the wind to blow

Now I'm in trouble with these friends of mine
A change was in my blood, I lost my sense of direction
I dragged us to the bright light, life is like a TV show
My fuse is set, I'm pressing go
Your match is lit but it's burning slow

Release me and take another piece of me
And there won't be another left
C'mon release me, release me take another piece of me
And there won't be another left unless you let go

I'll be nothing but sand falling down
Through your fingers to the ground below
Through your fingers to the ground below

Yeah I've been running, I've been running
I've been running such a long time

Release me and take another piece of me
And there won't be another left
Try to believe me, release me take another piece of me
And there won't be another left unless you let go

[Repeat: x8]
Unless you let go
