Sweet Release Lyrics
Destiny's a road we rideSight unseen--our thoughts untriedThrough the years--a million milesA trial of errors--a life of trialsThere's a sign along the highwayThere's a candle by my bedThere's a face in the doorwayThere's a price on my headSweet release...come in peaceSweet release...won't you carry me onSweet release...my falls increaseSweet release...I'm not that strongSex machine will break you downStrip you clean and take your crownWasted nights--rise and fallOne-way lights--they hide it allNow I stand before the mirrorHold the candle to my faceI can feel the scars burnin'But they don't leave a traceSweet release...rest in peaceSweet release...I toss and turnSweet release...come and teach meSweet release...we never learnBlack and white is black and redNone are right--but some are deadThrough every life the war drags onOur hopes and dreams lie ripped and tornSweet release...give us peaceSweet release...won't you carry me onSweet release...will it never ceaseSweet release...can't you see I'm not that strong
