Lyrics
RELEASE ME © 2011 Timothy J. Martin
Haunted the dawn
Before my eyes
Turned right to wrong
Shadow of dismay
Poisoned the seeds I lay
Harvest my anguish
Release me
From your clutch
Sold my honor
Starved my trust
Release me
From your grasp
(blind rage) choke hold
On the Gallows’ mask
Hear me Grandfather
Your voice still soothes
I’m here along side your plow of truth
Hear me [Uncle] Joe I will not rest
Your hands guide my swing
Rage in my breath
Release me
From your clutch
Mired [drowning] my dreams
Choked my luck
Release me
From the past
Dark horse reins
I wheel the axe
Hear me mother
Moon lit with you
You have my word – final truth
Hold me close – remember
Your son is rising
Thank you father for all you’ve asked
Buried you Dark mockery
Marked your grave with the fire of certainty
