lyrics

I’m a song-less bird, I’m a flightless word is this really me
I’m a sunless sky got no alibi for what’s become of me
I’m a heat-less flame everyday is the same, don’t expect nothing from me
I’m a loaded gun but I’m stuck in the mud of this troubled philosophy

I handed you my freedom just like that
you pushed me to my grave with a pat on the back


Give me my freedom back
Cuz I won’t be caught standing still, wasting time
Waiting until you, give me my freedom back
Cuz the sun won’t shine if these words of mine, get laid to rest in me

I was a silent voice, but it was my choice to deceive myself to be
I was a clueless victim whose only conviction was living in apathy
I was a mold fitting, whose stories unwritten I’m stopping this mockery
I was another sob story ‘til I saw the glory of what it means to be free

I handed you my freedom just like that
You pushed me to my grave with a pat on the back

I’m walking in freedom now
You held my hand like a ball in chain
You stole my heart like a thief with no shame
I’m walking in freedom now
Cuz the sun won’t shine if these words of mine get laid to rest in me
