lyrics

You stand and look through the space
Of a grey stone square
And cry in the bedroom
For the wind in your hair
The windows are cloudy.
Outside there is mist
But for you the difference
Is the strength of your fist
In the dark of a nightclub
You wish you could see,
In the back of your mind
You want to be free
You want to be free
Ha!

The passage of time
Is an elegant race -
For you it is hard,
You can’t stand the pace.
The mirrors are blushing,
The coal is down low -
The room is so cold,
On the floor there is snow.
A tighter grip on the wheel
As you try to flee
Sitting in the car
You want to be free
You want to be free
Ha!

The man in the moon
Has his stare fixed on you,
In the warmth of the sky
You wish you were there too.
The shadows are gone,
The streetlights are out,
Now you are lost,
Now you can doubt.
There’s a knife in your hand,
Stones in the sea -
Waves all around you,
You want to be free
You want to be free
Ha!
[Repeat]
