The price-we pay to live is time Time is never on your side When you wish it would just end One minute lasts forever Each day that passes by Intensifies My hate toward these systems that dictate How I'm allowed to live How I'm allowed to feel Under their regulations Tied Down for too long Don't Tell me I can't Have What I want Or is there such a thing called freedom Millions of names remain unidentified A bar code is a face you cannot recognize Forgotten-no one wants to hear about The forgotten-they don't care I've been Tied Down for too long Don't Tell me I can't Have What I want Or is there such a thing called freedom These walls are closing in Guide me to the light Show me a better way For the bread I eat has become stale-oh Each day that passes by Intensifies My hate toward these systems that dictate How I'm allowed to live How I'm allowed to feel Under their regulations Show me a better way For I've been Tied Down for too long Don't Tell me I can't Have What I want Or is there such a thing called freedom (X2)
