Riddance by Mouth of the South


Song Lyrics


Riddance
by Mouth of the South

Album: Transparency


I'm sick, so sick of this complacency and the apathy of my heart

Im stuck with paralytic tendencies

This passivity has torn me apart



I am trying to find my way back home

But I've had a hard time with these dry and weary bones

I am a Pharisee by definition

Far too proud to admit when I am wrong

I am a plague to my own existence

I'm killing myself with this repetitious sin

I am a hypocrite!

Wash me clean I am so desperate to be free



Set me free


It's time I called you out

For all pain and death that you have caused

No more holding back

I've drawn my line I won't back down

This is the end of you

No longer a thorn in my side

This is the end of you

I'm taking back my life



Rid me of myself



Cycle endless cycle, when will my hands be clean when will I be set free

I've been asleep all these years with open eyes it's time I wake up



And separate myself from all this pain

You and I are not the same

Im sick of always feeling like I'm weak

God, set me free



So here we are, me myself and I but your voice is in my head

I've got nothing left to lose cause I'm already dead


God, put me to sleep. Put me to sleep, oh God. Put me to sleep. Put an end to my depravity.



And at the end of it all
I look back on everything that have made me fall

Now there's only one thing left to say

This is my life... And this time I choose to walk away
