Wall crumble down in a second
Step away from the world that was mine
Held together by fear and resentment
Just a few words they took down foundations of lies
Now the next day is so full of promise
Free from shackles that wore down our souls
And I think in the end that we both understood
The years that you may give don't mean nothing at all
Now we're free
What will you be
I feel like taking some time
For my own peace of mind
While I bleed
Now that you're free
Paint a version of me
I'll accept graciously just to be on my way
Now we're free
Friendships will fade if you let them
Ties erode as the years flow on by
Add the things I desire to collections
Sit unused on a shelf cause I don't have the time
In the end is there real satisfaction
When the struggles we fight are all gone
Shaping souls with our every reaction
Take at look the damage and tell me I'm wrong
Now we're free
What will you be
I feel like taking some time
For my own peace of mind
While I bleed
Now that you're free
Paint a version of me
I'll be the villain who broke
all the trust that you saved
Or the monster who took
all the goodness you gave
You can tell anyone how it's just me to blame
I'll accept graciously just to be on my way
Now we're free
I want you to know that you hold a place no one can take
And the temper you see every day is my burden to shake
The love that locked in from the first breath you took
Nothing else can prepare you no teachers or books
And I'll promise right now I'll do all that I can
To sever the cycle and become a better man
Now we're free
What will you be
I feel like taking some time
For my own peace of mind
While I bleed
Now that you're free
Paint a version of me
I'll be the villain who broke
all the trust that you saved
Or the monster who took
all the goodness you gave
You can tell anyone how it's just me to blame
I'll accept graciously just to be on my way
Now we're free
