De Profundis - Release lyrics

Wasting away, another day, closer to d**h Bursting with rage, longing to take my final breath The living dead, bound to a bed, gaunt and grey Seeking reprieve, in the comfort of the grave Release me Set me free Life has no point, every breath a burden I am but a shadow, imprisoned by my wretched flesh A ghost haunting this pathetic ruined body I do not wish to see life out to the bitter end Release me Set me free Body corrodes, ravished by disease, wreckage of flesh I cannot move, drained of strength. Paralysed Fully aware of My surroundings, mentally sound But unable to communicate my wish to die The end cannot come soon enough Please let me die with dignity Now dry your eyes my dear Do not weep Do not shed a tear Let me bid you a last farewell The time has come to take my leave The d** they only dull my mind My body tortured by disease The end cannot come soon enough Now let me die with dignity Please let me swallow the poison that brings the cure So that the agony drains from my tortured shell I welcome the reaper d**h is my destiny Break these chains, set me free Let me soar infinitely Let d**h take my hand and lead me away Release me, let me drift into eternal sleep
