Lyrics
They said it would be better off for society
To lock up the souls who were lost in their tragedies
But freedom's not all of the thing that it?s cracked up to be
Cause there I found love and a place people cared for me
And far from the world and the pain it can bring
I was free as a bird on the wing.
Some fought in the wars and they?d shake at the banging of doors
Or suffered a lost that could break every last resource
At first I was scared to be near those broken women and men
But soon I would learn they were dear and I was one of them
And far from the world and the pain it can bring
I was free as a bird on the wing.
Some stared at the walls wondering why life was spinning around
Or walked in the halls just to cry with their heads hung down
And yet through it all there was love and we cared for each other
With unspoken word just that look that said I love you brother
And far from the world and the pain it can bring
I was free as a bird on the wing.
