I can't set you free
That's not how it works
I am only one among many
So much to do it hurts

I can't capture a moment
And filter it out for you
So many people can be spent
So much anger it's true

The days are long and unimpressive
Sick of all of the short cuts in life
I try to be one who is decisive
But it can't change the picture in your mind

Here comes a long list of things to undo
Unravel the past and make the future right
If only my faith wasn't stuck like glue
I would be able to set matters right

I would be able to set you free...
