Release Me - Judicator

Life in this cage, it seems I am condemned to see right through the bars of

freedom out beyond

That is the punishment, to see what you can’t have

And learn obedience, to kneel as you still stand

Friedrich, dear

My love, be calm

You’ll find your path in time before too long

I fear his hand

The shame carries on

A tyrant for a guide

Release is on my mind

No songs of birds, no warm embrace

Nothing more valuable than a friendly face

Only my sister and Hans von Katte

There’s no escape, make the best of what you have

You’re wasting time, you worthless boy

My plans for you won’t be destroyed

I fear his plans

Confined to fortress walls

The shame he puts on me

Release is on my mind

Friedrich, boy

All will be well

A chance of release from all this hell

Fight, flight, or die

I’ll vanish into the night

No choice but to risk my life

My tyrant, my father and this strife
