Sixx:A.M. - Permission Lyrics






I apologize
That your memory serves you more than I can now
You'll have to make sense of my life somehow
Yeah, somehow

Well, I close my eyes
Remove each piece of armor one by one
Inhale this moment deep into my lungs
Make amends for all I've done

All of my devils are free at last
And all my secrets revealed
And your permission is all I
Need to heal

Well how long have I
Been sitting here, I must have drifted off
I cannot finish any of my thoughts
Forgive me for my wayward shot

All of my devils are free at last
And all my secrets revealed
And your permission is all I
Need to heal

I wake up in the morning, and it comes back to you
I breathe in I breathe out, it comes back to you
I stare up at the ceiling, and it comes back to you
I step out my front door, and it comes back to you
The end of my driveway, it comes back to you
Brakelights on the highway, it comes back to you
I could die in Los Angeles.
It would come back to you.

All of my devils, they are free at last, oh
And all my secrets are revealed, yeah
And your permission is all that I,
I need to feel
All of my devils, they are free at last, oh
And all my secrets are revealed, yes they are
And your permission is all that I need.

Sixx:A.M. Permission Comments
  1. *.... t....

    This video is so sad! Seeing the end results of addiction, hearing and knowing how some ppl give up everything in life become the slave to this .. So dedicated to giving in till the death of them. It's heartbreaking to watch, to know but on the other hand it's heartwarming to realize that ppl "we" don't have to stay a slave to this that there's hope and always a way out..
    "We" just have to remember that there is a God who understands beyond what we comprehend and won't ever leave us not forsake us. "H.O.P.E. ~ hold on pain ends"
    U are stronger than you know... Let God carry you through believe that even though addiction is a hard thing to overcome. I can assure you that it's more possible than some realize to get help and be free from its grasp on u. Never give up and never stop loving yourself. Never forget addiction is the lie that loves to hate you & seeks to destroy you. It's just a thought I thought I'd share. God bless us all!!!
    💜✨💗💞💖💞💗✨💜

    That was excellent

  23. C.... ....

    RIP Lyle Alzado, former NFL great who died from a brain tumor caused by many years of steroid abuse. "I started taking anabolic steroids in 1969 and never stopped. It was addicting, mentally addicting. Now I'm sick, and I'm scared. Ninety percent of the athletes I know are on the stuff. We're not born to be 300 pounds or jump 30 feet. But all the time I was taking steroids, I knew they were making me play better. I became very violent on the field and off it. I did things only crazy people do. Once a guy sideswiped my car and I beat the hell out of him. Now look at me. My hair's gone, I wobble when I walk and have to hold on to someone for support, and I have trouble remembering things. My last wish? That no one else ever dies this way." ~ Lyle Alzado

  24. C.... S....

    Andrew Wood, RIP. He is missing from the video. No Andrew Wood, no grunge

  25. C.... R....

  26. P.... C....

    A lot of these people I do not know but Layne Staley I loved so much as a singer he was my inspitation. Thanks for the memories. I see Phil Lynot of Thin Lizzy Rip to all the lost ones we loved.

  27. A.... A....

    Great Job..Great song!

  28. T.... R....

    I listened to this album over and over everyday for a yr when I got out of rehab and it will always touch me and remind me of how real addiction is and how real feelings and life is!

    T.... R....

    There is a huge message in this album! God bless you Troy.

  29. U.... s....

    +Univox sixtyeight agreed !

  30. P.... D....

    RIP Kurt Cobain,we will love and cherish your music forever

    P.... D....

    Yes nirvana vocalist

  31. T.... H....

    @Feldwebel Blitz I think it has to do with just being able to face yourself after overcoming addiction. Once you learn to see the addiction for what it is, you then have to face yourself & forgive yourself for the bad choices, to be able move forward. In my opinion, I feel that the lyrics are directed at his inner self - there is no one who can be harder on you than you, when you feel guilt and pain and sorrow. You have to allow yourself to heal. Hope that my interpretation helped, Many Blessings <3

    T.... H....

    Perfect words. Going through a break up and your words relate to that as well. Even 4 years later. The song seems to be referring to the 12 steps of recovery and those things you've already stated.

  32. b.... ....

    STILL MISSING GIL SCOTT-HERON

  33. A.... G....

    That's because they're not dead yet.

  34. F.... B....

    Can someone explain to me the meaning of 'your permission is all I need to heal'? I understand that, to recover, you need the people you love to forgive you. But English is not my mothertongue and I'm not sure I get it right.

  35. s.... k....

    Anyone still depressed?? Read my upcoming book "the road out of darkness"--

    s.... k....

    Thank
    Good book

  36. T.... ....

    I disagree if you put it in your body the first time then it was your choice regardless of what you think of the 2nd 3rd 4rd and so on it started as your choice and even by the 50th time its still YOUR CHOICE to call for medical help or go to a rehab just in case you have second thoughts the medical professionals will make sure you get through it and even better they will do everything they can to keep you alive

  37. P.... ....

    rip razzle ♥

    P.... ....

    Yes rip
    Addicted is bad

  38. L.... B....

    Surprised that Nikki Sixx wasn't there considering Sixx AM is his band. Can't read the description due to being on my mobile, so I don't know if there is a reason or not. Ozzy Osbourne wasn't there, either. :.

  39. N.... H....

  63. J.... T....

    I think it's Kevin DuBrow from Quiet Riot.

  64. T.... ....

    The basket ball player near the begining wasnt addicted he tried some extremely pure cocaine to try to have fun but his heart gave out

  65. s.... ....

    @pbabbat1 Hi when I was a teen my dad said to me if you ever do drugs I just kill you my self and let met tell you it work I have never done any kinds of drugs I love my dad and because he was really stricked it worked for me by the way I grew up in the worst drugs and gangs in Los Angeles and I did good just say no and have a beautiful life.

  66. S.... ....

    Beautiful song, number one.. I always see a lot of hope in it. And I like what you did by, perhaps, bringing awareness to an all too common issue. So many good people lose their lives every day from drugs and alcohol addictions. I think the very last person you put in there had the most profound effect, thoguh I'm honestly not sure who that is. I can't really say enough about this video, other than it was beautiful, and thank you for making it.

  67. b.... ....

    Gil Scott Heron just recently passed away. Although he didn't die from an OD (that we know of), considering what he went through with the drugs, he should absolutely be included in this list. RIP.

  68. S.... D....

    thanks for sharing

  69. Z.... ....

    2:54 Hendrix R.I.P

  70. S.... ....

    On April 8, 1994, Cobain was found dead at his home in Seattle, the victim of what was officially ruled a suicide by a self-inflicted shotgun wound to the head.

    Penn was found dead in his Santa Monica condominium on January 24, 2006, at the age of 40. Examiner revealed the primary cause of death was "nonspecific cardiomyopathy" (heart disease), with the prescription drug promethazine with codeine and an enlarged heart being possible contributing circumstances.

    Love the song needs correct

  71. y.... b....
