lyrics

Hey man what do you see when youre walking free
Hey man how does it feel doing what you want is it real
They say I did something wrong locked me up, they cant take my song
I don’t mind shadows in the night creeping now as I wait for the light
Im alright alright

So when your walking around
Freedom found
Hear the sound
This time

Please tell my baby im behaving
And that I don’t need saving
Though my world is changing
Im alright

I just hope I can find something, something out of the nothing,
Being where I am right now my heart is breaking when im down
The world has cut me off, so much beauty has been lost
If I were to die in here would anyone even hear

So when your walking around
Freedom found
Hear the sound
This time

Please tell my baby im behaving
And that I don’t need saving
Though my world is changing
Im alright

Now my fire is burning
And now im not learning
Now Im yearning
