Lyrics Melissa Ferrick

Melissa Ferrick

Freedom

Sadness finds its way onto me

Yeah on any given day

And I just end up feeling guilty

And I don’t know how many times I’ve told you

I do not know how I ended up this way

It’s as if sometimes I have just halted

Yeah I stop dead in my tracks

Life it just seems to cover me

And it’s in these moments that I feel trapped

So I claim freedom

Yeah I claim my freedom

So what is it exactly that you want from me

Oh yeah you want me to stay

Even though I am terrified

To let myself

End up this way

Yeah I'm afraid of feeling

Of feeling nothing at all

And I’m afraid of settling down

Into a love

Just ain't love at all

So I claim my freedom

Yeah I claim I claim freedom

So take this brain out and hang it on the line

Take this chair out back and burn it

‘Cause I can't get any work done from in here

You know this hole I dug myself in

Has got me buried up to helpless

And I’d like to call you a liar

Yeah but that’s what you

Isn’t that what you always called me

Yeah I’d like to call you a liar liar

yeah but that’s what you

That’s what you always called me

So I claim freedom

Yeah claim I claim freedom

Freedom freedom
