Lyrics
Verse 1
When I was three I was, naked and free, this world had no boundaries
With years to my name it is fair to say, we all have our cards to play…
Chorus
How long… will ya’… stay strong… can ya’… keep pretending that you’re free?
How long… can ya’…stay caged… when the door’s wide open can’t you to see?
Verse 2
When I’m inside I am half alive, we’re meant to feel the wind and rain
As its beatin’ down I feel joyous and unbound, what was lost can be found…
Chorus
How long… will ya’… stay withdrawn… can ya’… keep contending that you’re free?
How long… can ya’…stay contained… when the feeling of living is the key?
Verse 3
So this is me, I’m still naked and free, this life has no boundaries
Nothing stoppin’ me, to achieve what I believe, yet fewer are the days to dream
Chorus
How long… will ya’… sing this song… can ya’… keep expecting that you’re free?
How long… can ya’…stay enraged… when the life you really want can simply be…
