Let Me Live


Let me live

Let me breathe.

I want to break free

I'm sorry I have to go

I want you to forgive

But you need to let me live!

 

I love you mom and dad

I'm sorry

For all the pain I've caused 

For the lies I've told

For the late nights I left you waiting

For the cigarettes you found under my bed

But this is the only way I can get it in your head

You need to let me live!
