Freedom Is Everything

I stand alone in a world that's full of life

A residence I can call my own

But the look on your strained and troubled lives

I would never have wished to know

And I dream that I'm running through a field full of promise

I don't want to look back to feel alone

As the light now embellishes the morning I long for

I know I must claim it for my own

'Cos it's over, I'm still running

Though I don't believe anyone's coming

Does it even matter?

I can hear them

And their voices are calling for freedom

I tell you that it's over

(I tell you that it's over)

I'm in a road but my heart is of the stream

As I stand there stationary

I can see this tarmacked mausoleum

Would flow if it had the means

And I dream that I'm running through a field full of promise

I don't want to look back to feel alone

As the light now embellishes the morning I long for

I know I must claim it for my own

'Cos it's over, I'm still running

Though I don't believe anyone's coming

Does it even matter?

I can hear them

And their voices are calling for freedom

I tell you that

Did you look at the world as it stared at you?

Do you feel there is nothing beyond it?

Should I long for the things that I

Wanted so much to be part of you too?

Is there a place I can truly call my own?

A sanctum for us who feel?

Where souls can freely come and go

To embark beyond all fear

And I dream that I'm running through a field full of promise

I don't want to look back to feel alone

As the light now embellishes the morning I long for

I know I must claim it for my own

'Cos it's over, I'm still running

And I don't believe anyone's coming

Does it even matter?

I can hear them

And their voices are calling for freedom

I tell you that it's over
