Free (Not Afraid To Die)

(album: Strangers No More - 2023)

My love felt like a military exercise
Completely void of all surprise
Pull me from the wreckage
My heart was a run down courthouse, no mercy and no pardons
A home with no garden, a bottle with no message

I want to be free, I want to ride through lightning
I want to be there when the water's rising
I want to let go of all the ghosts I'm fighting
I want to be free, not afraid to die

Sometimes my soul can feel so untethered
Blowing around in the fair weather, a well with no spring
When I feel the weight of time in the distance
I give up all resistance and close my eyes while I sing

I want to be free, I want to ride through lightning
I want to be there when the water's rising
I want to let go of all the ghosts I'm fighting
I want to be free, not afraid to die

I want to be free, see a new horizon
I want to be there when the Jordan's rising
I want to let go of the all ghosts I'm fighting
I want to be free, not afraid to die
I want to be free, not afraid to die
