Years of wait are over now
She's almost in my grasp
Now I will fulfill my vow
She will be mine at lastI feel him near
The boy estranged has now returned
A full grown man, but still I fear that nothing's changed
He simply does not understandCome with me
I'll set you free
And I'll show you
What your life could beYou can't see
That I am free
My life is mine,
Not yours, so leave me beThrough forests deep, over mountains high
I've crossed the waves for her
In shadows dark, this cursed night
My thoughts and memories stirI've left the memories
Of our youth behind
I don't know what he hopes to find
In the shadows he waits for meCome with me
I'll set you free
And I'll show you
What your life could beYou can't see
That I am free
My life is mine,
Not yours, so leave me beShe refuses to leave
So I grab her by forceI pull the knife I've concealed
I put the edge to his throatShocked by the attack
I can feel her final words searLeave and never come back
Or I'll cut you ear to earYou can't see
That I am free
My life is mine,
Not yours, so leave me beI'll set you free
He said to me
And I'll show you what your life could be
I am free
She said to me
My life is mine,
Not yours, so leave me be
