From the recording Thy Merciful Teeth
Lyrics
TO THOSE WHO ARE FREE
When I was very young, I had nothing in the world but you
So when you broke my heart, I had nothing in the world to lose
But now I'm a man, all I want is the air,
Just beyond where I'll be,
when your cold, cold embrace returns to me
When I was very young, I would work until I could not stand
I wanted to be great, so you'd know that I deserved your hand
Now I'm a man, all I want is the ground,
Just beyond where I'll be,
when your cold, cold embrace returns to me
When I was very young, I was terrified of being free
At every fork and turn, I would listen for the voice of God
Now I'm a man, all I want is a choice,
Just beyond where I'll be,
when your cold, cold embrace returns to me
