I keep walking down the same city streets
The same city lines, to the same lonely beat
People say, Hello, but I don't know what to say
I don't know how I feel, I just can't act that wayI wanna hide from all these strangers
I wanna run home to you
All I need is your compassion, yes
We can be free, yes, I wanna be free, yes
I wanna be free, yes, I wanna be freeOh, the way I'm shut out by your silence
It's the loudest thing I've ever known
You leave me, leave me hanging
'Til I feel useless with my hopeOh, it's lonely in the city, it can be lonely next to you
And just have the courage to open up yourself
Then we can be free, yes, I wanna be free, yes
I wanna be free, yes, I wanna be free
I just, I wanna be free, oh, I wanna be free, yes, I wanna be freeOh, it's lonely in the city, it can be lonely next to you
And just have the courage to open up yourself
Then we can be free, yes, I wanna be free, yes
I wanna be free, yes, I wanna be free
I just, I wanna be free, oh, I wanna be freeYeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, I wanna be free, yes
I wanna be free, I just, I wanna be free, yes
I wanna be free
