Free

She walks down the hall

keeps her eyes on her shoes

pretends she can’t hear them call

what they say they would do

and she figures she don’t owe nothin’

to no one

Everything worth giving’s been taken

and it’s gone

Some people ask her what’s wrong

she says that she’s fine

Sometimes they still play along

though they know it’s a lie

and she figures she don’t owe nothin’

to no one

Everything worth giving’s been taken

 and it’s gone

But at night she can fly in her dreams

and she’ll keep flying ’til she finds 

a place that’s free

a place that’s free

She likes to walk by the tracks

and stare at the trains

She dreams of the places they go

dreams of going away

and she figures she don’t owe nothin’

to no one

Everything worth giving’s been taken

and it’s gone

At night she can fly in her dreams

and she’ll keep flying ’til she finds 

a place that’s free

a place that’s free
