I'm not as free as I thought I'd be
I thought I broke free

I'm not as free as I thought I'd be
I was sure my mind was open
Certainty only grounded in guilded notions

I'm not as free as I thought I'd be
Illusions dance on the film of my memory
They call to me and resound liberty
Memories, when well thought of only
echo regret and cowardness

I'm not as free as I thought I'd be
Consumed and driven by fear
No laughter or chaos near
No lights or playful sights

I'm not as free as I thought I'd be
For my life is played out safely behind
