"I'm a free man now. I'm about to cry"
You dropped your life. All the habits you've had
Since you were a child. Danger no longer follows
You around. You keep that gun in your car despite.
Say that you're just trying to keep everyone safe,
Keep me safe. I'll never know what your life was like.
I'll never know what it's like to become free. My life
Has been safe and calm and cared for. I have always
Been protected. I long for the danger and the trials,
The misguided paths leading down long lonely roads.
I would rather be in danger, suffer abuse. This life is
Stale and I want to get out. I want to be in danger.
I want to know what it feels like to become free.
