It started out when I was just a young kid
No matter what I did, I couldn't get enough of it
I was a broken one, a trigger on a loaded gun
I can show you my scars and how to get some
I've never been one to fight fair on my own
But this has taken me down, now I can't get up
I've been a dark horse running for way too long
Chasing down dreams where I don't belong
And I could try for the rest of my life
To give up everything while I beg to die
I've been a wild one playing for way too long
In and out of games where I've never belonged
So tell me what it means
Can anybody tell me what it means
To be free?
A chain without a lock, I don't know how to stop
Underneath my skin, a hunger that will never quit
I was a broken one, a trigger on a loaded gun
I can show my scars and how to get some
I've never been one to fight fair on my own
But this has taken me down, now I can't get up
I've been a dark horse running for way too long
Chasing down dreams where I don't belong
And I could try for the rest of my life
To give up everything while I beg to die
I've been a wild one playing for way too long
In and out of games where I've never belonged
So tell me what it means
Can anybody tell me what it means
To be free? (free, free, free, free, free)
All I wanted to see was You face to face
All You wanted from me was the chase
I'm a dark horse on the course, on the run
A dark force chasing me like I'm Forrest Gump
I'm on the floor, but I'm begging for the Lord to come
I'm in a war for my soul, but I ain't got a gun
I need a cure for the disease I suffer from
Who will set me free?
Who?
Can I find someone?
I've been a dark horse running for way too long
Chasing down dreams where I don't belong
And I could try for the rest of my life
To give up everything while I beg to die
I've been a wild one playing for way too long
In and out of games where I've never belonged
So tell me what it means
Can anybody tell me what it means
To be free? (free)
