Sweet Release — текст песни (Billy Squier)

Destinys a road we ride

Sight unseen--our thoughts untried

Through the years--a million miles

A trial of errors--a life of trials

Theres a sign along the highway

Theres a candle by my bed

Theres a face in the doorway

Theres a price on my head





Sweet release...come in peace

Sweet release...wont you carry me on

Sweet release...my falls increase

Sweet release...im not that strong





Sex machine will break you down

Strip you clean and take your crown

Wasted nights--rise and fall

One-way lights--they hide it all

Now I stand before the mirror

Hold the candle to my face

I can feel the scars burnin

But they dont leave a trace





Sweet release...rest in peace

Sweet release...i toss and turn

Sweet release...come and teach me

Sweet release...we never learn





Black and white is black and red

None are right--but some are dead

Through every life the war drags on

Our hopes and dreams lie ripped and torn





Sweet release...give us peace

Sweet release...wont you carry me on

Sweet release...will it never cease

Sweet release...cant you see Im not that strong
