Trying to chip ice off, the inside of a freezer
Remembering I did everything I could, to appease her
But I ain't an ashtray you can stub out your fag
Neither am I an excuse or a life-size, punch bag
~
I don't have the energy to plead, "Just set me free."
I've lost all the fight and the resistance in me
And if the rain doesn't flood or bring the castle walls down
Then the tide will come in and the people will drown 
~
Then we fought and we fought and we bloody well fought
You smashed up my world, laughed as you left me distraught
My bank account was emptied, only a big, fat nought
Like a boa constrictor, in your grip I was caught
~
I don't have the energy to plead, "Just set me free."
I've lost all the fight and the resistance in me
And if the rain doesn't flood or bring the castle walls down
Then the tide will come in and the people will drown
~
And as the snow started falling, sometime, late November
There was a burning fire of logs, don’t you remember?
Maybe you'll have regrets or then maybe you won't
Or maybe like me, you'll send all your memories up in smoke
~
I don't have the energy to plead, "Just set me free."
I've lost all the fight and the resistance in me
Because the rain will soon flood, bringing those castle walls down
And the tide will come in and all the people will drown
