Lyrics
[Intro Chorus]
I'm lost without the freedom you give me,
trapped inside a shattered, broken down memory.
Blood turns to dust as this heart dies within me,
I gasp for breath, but there's no air to lift me,
praying for someone to come and release me,
somehow I know that I'm trapped in this memory.
[Verse I]
Still in my mind I carry it with me,
a piece of the past that's now yellow with history,
it's molded with age, but the memories relapse,
and somehow I know that there's no turning back.
Lead me into darkness, I can't stand the light,
with all that I've lost, there's no reason to fight.
So show me these reasons and give me the sign,
cause trapped in this prison, I'm losing my mind.
[Chorus]
I'm lost without the freedom you give me,
trapped inside a shattered, broken down memory.
Blood turns to dust as this heart dies within me,
I gasp for breath, but there's no air to lift me,
praying for someone to come and release me,
somehow I know that I'm trapped in this memory.
[Verse II]
Sand in an hourglass, the time runs away,
with no reason to live my life's rotting away,
they say that forgiveness will find me someday,
but I don't know if I could look at you the same.
And as I wake up the sunlight hits my face,
so why am I tortured to live through these days?
I look in the mirror, but don't see my face.
I'm trapped in the memory of my own damn mistake.
[Bridge]
Let me go, set me free.
Break these chains, of this memory.
[Chorus]
I'm lost without the freedom you give me,
trapped inside a shattered, broken down memory.
Blood turns to dust as this heart dies within me,
I gasp for breath, but there's no air to lift me,
praying for someone to come and release me,
somehow I know that I'm trapped in this memory.
I'm lost without the freedom you give me,
trapped inside a shattered, broken down memory.
Blood turns to dust as this heart dies within me,
I gasp for breath, but there's no air to lift me,
praying for someone to come and release me,
somehow I know that I'm trapped in this memory.
