[Verse 1]
Baby, it's a fast world
If you don't finish first, you finish last world
A wishing that my life looked more like that world
And it's slipping through my fingers all the time

[Pre-Chorus]
But somewhere out in the darkness
There's a crack, the light is slipping through

[Chorus]
And the hounds are away for a moment
And I'm wide awake and breathing deep
And I'm glad for where I've been and where I'm going
Lord, let me feel sweet
Release, yeah
Release, yeah
Release, yeah
Lord, let me feel release

[Verse 2]
Baby, it's a wild world
A knock you down if you get up and try world
No one makes it out of here alive world
And it's slipping through my fingers all the time, yeah, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
But somewhere out in the darkness
There's a crack, the light is slipping through

[Chorus]
And the hounds are away for a moment
And I'm wide awake and breathing deep
And I'm glad for where I've been and where I'm going
Lord, let me feel sweet
Release, yeah
Release, yeah
Release
Lord, let me feel peace
Mm, yeah, go on
Release, yeah
Release, yeah
Release, yeah
Lord, let me feel peace

[Bridge]
Yeah, we spend our whole life running
Running from or running to

[Chorus]
And the hounds are away for a moment
And I'm wide awake and breathing deep
And I'm glad for where I've been and where I'm going
Lord, let me feel sweet
Release, yeah
Release, yeah
Release, yeah
Lord, let me feel peace
Ooh, Lord, let me feel peace
Mm, Lord, let me feel sweet
[Instrumental Break]

[Spoken Outro]
Ha-ha, ha-ha, ha-ha
