Set Me FreeOk I'll try. Actually, I wrote this on Feb. 3rd 1997. The freaky thing is, read the chorus and some of the words.
I was diagnosed with cancer 2 days after I jotted down the chorus  Kinda wierd when you read it LOL...clean now though  Some verses were added later. I posted the song without lyrics a while back in originals. I would post it if someone wanted. I would love to hear someone add the vox to the song. I suck singing LOL ...Hope you like it. Let It Bleed When I close my eyes It's clear to see I can't run and hide From what is haunting me Running from my fears To try and ease the pain Just like I've done for years With only me to blame Chorus: Tear it open and let it bleed It hurts like hell but it's what I need To keep these demons from killing me I'm dying inside, please set me free Voices in my head Those freewheeling demons On my soul they've fed Manipulating my feelings In the monsters grip Swinging from the noose Not gonna take this trip But I can't cut loose Chorus: Tear it open and let it bleed It hurts like hell but it's what I need To keep these demons from killing me I'm dying inside, please set me free SOLO Chorus Repeat: Tear it open and let it bleed It hurts like hell but it's what I need To keep these demons from killing me I'm dying inside, please set me free Bound in chains, what is my crime The cancer feeds consuming me Sinking in the sands of time Gasping for breath as you call to me In the distance I can hear your voice As you scream crying out for me It pulls me down seems I have no choice Break these chains and set me free Chorus: Tear it open and let it bleed It hurts like hell but it's what I need To keep these demons from killing me I'm dying inside, please set me free |

pulling no punches there Flying V - very strong stuff indeed. I reckon no matter how you feel about your singing - this is far too personal a song to interpret IMO. This is about you and your experiences. It is pretty harrowing stuff too. Well written, very lucid
