I paint all black and step in among the shadows
The feelings of emptiness devours me quickly
And I know I never asked, yeah, but I need you to help me

Release me from darkness
Release me from all that chains me here
I'm drowning in silence
And I'm drowning alone

I hate to ask but I wouldn't if I didn't need it
Not stronger on my own
I'm weaker just so much weaker
And I know I never asked, no, no, but I need you to help me

Release me from darkness
Release me from all that chains me here
I'm drowning in silence
(And I'm drowning alone)
And I can't out-swim the fear
Release me from darkness
Release me from all that chains me here
My arms getting tired
So relieve me from hurt, oh...
Relieve me from hurt...

(See me... 'cause here I am)
(Hear me... 'cause here I am)
(Remember me... 'cause here I am)
(Notice me 'cause here I am...)

Release me from darkness
Release me from all that chains me here
I'm drowning in silence
(And I'm drowning alone)
And I can't out-swim the fear
Release me from darkness
Release me from all that chains me here
My arms getting tired
Relieve me from hurt
