This is for the best Let the record show We don't need to confess What we both know It's time to let it go The weight upon my back Like a giant stone Is rolling over Now I'm on my own Now I'm on my own This is freedom This is freedom We were rotten weather We let that cold wind blow for so long We got used to it all I've been waiting on a stubborn heart Now the sky is clear Have no fear Soldier on This lonely desert air is Freedom This is freedom Making weapons out of words We were bound to get hurt But it wasn't a war I was asking for I just wanted Freedom
