The Release

(music: marillion lyrics: steve hogarth & john helmer)



The alarm by the bed

Wring the dreams from my head

It's a new day

Leave the flakes in the bowl

Milk unopened, i'm gone

But i'm still late...

Join the fight for a cab

Take our place in the jam

And watch the clock again



There is a man in my head

I think he came from the screen...

Or the bible

All he wants is for me is to be strong

But i seem to be unreliable

You know it gets so hard

When everything you are

Is everything you don't want to be



But at the end of the day

You're the one who burns it all away

The end of the day

You're the one

You're the one

The end of the day



So won't you show me those pictures, you hold in your head

And can you lose me somewhere inside them all

Because there are colours that run through the heart of me

That only you can see



But at the end of the day

You're the one who burns it all away

The end of the day

You're the one

You're the one

The end of the day

You're the one who burns it all away

You burn it all away

Would you burn it all away

Would you burn it all away
