When Will You Be Free

Story Behind The Song

We had been observing others, the choices that they made and the good and the bad that came from the choices.

Song Description

In single-minds, our search for individuality and freedom, we may find only lack of fulfillment. And, if you wish to make that bed, you have to then lie in it even if that means being alone -- so, it is important that one is careful for what they wish for.

Lyrics

Hey little girl turn your face around to me | Closing your eyes won't block out the message I have for you | You feel your body shake rattled by the ground | It moves so quickly | That you keep on falling down | | There's a place inside you where an innocent cries | Beneath your armor insecurity hides | And you feel you've got to fly away any way you can | And you lie and cheat | As you smile at the people that you meet | | When will you be free | From the ones you love | When will you be free | To enjoy your misery | | You feel the loss of self as one of the plural rose | You fear they'll notice that you're standing on your toes | But while they close their petals to nurture the flower inside | You spread your pedal wings far and wide | | So you're not alone again, you'll randomize | Just a little love along the way, you'll economize | Keeping a distance from the ones you love, you'll criticize | And if they slow you down, you'll show them how much you can despise | | Then you feel you'll be free | With no safety net | You feel you'll be free | To fall from your trapeze | | Why don't you just break away, and polarize | No matter how much it costs, antagonize | And when they ask you why, you can rationalize | And when they show you to be wrong, you will ostracize | | Now you are free | Planted in your own garden in the middle of the sea | Now you are free | Truly, you are free, yaaa
