Set Me Free lyrics

[Verse 1]
I killed a dream
When I broke a promise to you
I tore the seam
That we had been holding on to
I took a chance, my envy surged
But I could not control the urge
No, I never should have hurt you
Now I'm waiting for the year
That my sentence disappears
I'm in a prison of regret

[Chorus]
Set me free, set me free
I don't want to believe
This is me, this is me, it can't be
Down with pride, down with hate
I've watched my anger recede
Look and see, you've changed me, set me free

[Verse 2]
I lived and learned
When I broke a promise to you
I crashed and burned
You'll never know the hell I've been through
Serving beneath a higher power
Ruling from a castle tower
It was so hard for me to bear
And now you have to understand
I have learned my lesson and
Now I want to clear the air
[Chorus]
Set me free, set me free
I don't want to believe
This is me, this is me, it can't be
Down with pride, down with hate
I've watched my anger recede
Look and see, you've changed me, set me free

[Bridge]
No hard feelings, let's start reeling time back to before
You entrapped me, managed to catch me, and do so much more
But I've controlled it, I can hold it, the nightmare inside
No secrets here, I'm crystal clear, there's nothing left to hide
So I implore you, look before to who I was back then
Think of me and, set me free to let this torture end

[Chorus]
Set me free, set me free
I don't want to believe
This is me, this is me, it can't be
Down with pride, down with hate
I've watched my anger recede
Look and see, you've changed me, set me free
