Free

You said that I should set it free

To let it be a part of me

You wanted me to let it go

You said that I should let it show

You said that it was killing me

This thing you want me to set free

So I give in to all of you

I had no choice what could I do

You said I would be filled with joy

Like a child's new found toy

But cant you see

Its killing me

And when you said that I have changed

I no longer seem to be enraged

You will never know what I did

To take control of it again

I used to know how to contain

I learned to hide away the pain

But I no longer have the strength

To keep this thing inside of me

This thing you want me to set free

Amidst the pain there still is hope

Like a stunt mans safety rope

There is one who has the strength

To take this pain so far away

Never to see the light of day

Only He can set this free

This thing you said was killing me

And now its time to let it go

So that I can let Him show

All that He has planed for me

Now that He has set me free
