"Release" lyrics

These days I been drowning in a burning room
All these feelings weigh me down like lead balloons
I can't stop my hands from reaching out for you
It's like my mind knows that you're gone but my body won't believe it's true

I need to unload it, my heart's overflowing
The dam now is broken, don't know how to close it
'Cause the only person who could fix it ain't around, no

'Cause you were my release
I placed you 'round my feet
Now I'm left standing in ruins and for everyone to see

I need release, I need release
I need release, oh, release
Oh

Spreading broken pieces of my heart around
Telling all my secrets to an empty crowd, oh

I need to unload it, my heart's overflowing
The dam now is broken, don't know how to close it
'Cause the only person who could fix it ain't around, no

'Cause you were my release
Somewhere for me to be
My heart swam in too deep and now they're spinning in the streets

Yeah, you were my release
I placed you 'round my feet
Now I'm left standing in ruins and for everyone to see

I need release, release
I need release, release

Oh, I need release, I need release
I need release, release
Oh, I need release, I need release
I need release, release
Oh
