From the recording Tempered Tantrum
Lyrics
Bring me to the place where all things sleep
I’ve been going on for too long, I’m in too deep
The sun is rising, all over again
If I could clear my mind, maybe I’d pass out then
It’s been a long time coming
But not long enough for me
It’s been a long time coming
It’s time to be set free
Bring me to the place where beauty goes to die
And the truth lies in tatters so we can live the lie
Meditate on misery, all that long lost potential
And on the depth of sorrow, which is exponential
It’s been a long time coming
But not long enough for me
It’s been a long time coming
It’s time to be set free
Bring me down to the dungeons, chain me to the wall
The chains will rust until they break but you can’t break my resolve
Bring me to the gallows, take your time to tie the rope
But when the trap door opens, it’ll be the rope that broke
It’s been a long time coming
But not long enough for me
It’s been a long time coming
It’s time to be set free
It’s been a long time coming
But not long enough for me
It’s been a long time coming
It’s time to be set free
