Tangled in thorns
I was terrified
I couldn't breathe
God, please release me
With stickers in my eyes
And vines wrapped around me
I cried
God, please release me
So brokenhearted
But I couldn't show it
Covered emotional bruises
And bleeding
I begged God, release me
Tears fell
Angry prayers felt wrong
But God knew my heart anyway
I dreamed of freedom
I dreamed of peace
I longed for love that seemed
So out of reach
I wanted release
I prayed for release
Raindrops mixed with tears
I looked out at the sky
Desperately pleading
God, please release me
Kept quiet, hung my head low
To cover up the guilt
From praying
God, please release me
The paper was signed
I had finally drawn a line
There was no turning back now
Freedom rang
I shook off the shame
Of the thorns that had drug me down
God released me
I found freedom
I found peace
I found love that seemed
So out of reach
I found release
I was released
