lyrics

I’ve got all these premonitions running through my mind
And seventeen of them are running out of time
I feel reluctant to close my eyes
Incase I see your shadow beneath the midnight skies
Everyone is telling me to rest my thoughts
They look at me as if to say he’s lost the plot
but little do they know you’re pulling all the strings
Leaving me totally helpless to the state I’m in

Yeah you’ve got me in your palm
And it’s everything I need
Even if I felt the urge
There is no way I could leave

No I couldn’t leave
I can’t see baby
No I can’t breathe

I’ve spent hours trying to convince myself I’m done
That I may aswell just spend my time chasing the sun
At the pivotal old turning point of left or right
I always find myself following your light
I’m really sick and tired of the games you play
I’m gloriously terrified of what you’ll say
When I feel my conscience telling me today’s the day
Will it end in bliss or all become dismay

Yeah you’ve got me in your palm
And it’s everything I need
Even if I felt the urge
There is no way I could leave

No I couldn’t leave
I can’t see baby
No I can’t breathe

So I’ve taken it upon myself
To get out baby
And that’s it we’re through
A thousand miles from the wicked things you do

Let me out baby let me see the sun again
Let me feel the morning breeze soothe my tired brain
Let me out baby can’t you see I’ve nothing left
Let me go up to the surface and take one last breath
Let me out baby please
Oh won’t you let me out
