Freed
Do you love me the way I am
Do you love me for me
Or do you only love me when I'm tamed
Like a beast in hibernation
Are we only ever going to live like this
The light in my eyes no longer shinning
Feelings becoming blunt
Diluted by all those medications
Do you not miss the times
When our love was a wildfire
We burned everything in our way
Our flames never faltered
Going to the beach unprepared
We still stripped off our clothes
Throwing ourselves out into the sea
Free as a eagle soaring through the skies
Holding hands and shivering
In wet clothes and soaking undergarments
We burnt stronger than the cold
As we board the train home together
That was the beauty in love
The true beauty of life
That pack of restraint
The freedom of insanity
I'm not trying to disappoint you
Just choosing to be freed
Like a bird can't fly with twigs in it's wings
I will burn as bright as yesterday
