"Release" lyrics

Baby it's a fast world
If-you-don't-finish-first-you-finish-last world
A wishing-that-my-life-looked-more-like-that world
And it's slipping through my fingers all the time

But somewhere out in the darkness
There's a crack, the light is slipping through

And the hounds are away for a moment
And I'm wide awake and breathing deep
And I'm glad for where I've been and where I'm going
Lord, let me feel sweet
Release
Release
Release

Baby it's a wild world
A knock-you-down-if-you-get-up-and-try world
A no-one-makes-it-out-of-here-alive world
And it's slipping through my fingers all the time

But somewhere out in the darkness
There's a crack the light is slipping through

And the hounds are away for a moment
And I'm wide awake and breathing deep
And I'm glad for where I've been and where I'm going
Lord, let me feel sweet
Release
Release
Release

Yeah we spend our whole life running
Running from or running to

And the hounds are away for a moment
And I'm wide awake and breathing deep
And I'm glad for where I've been and where I'm going
Lord, let me feel sweet
Release
Release
