I'm not chasing miracles
I don't want no sympathy
I'm waiting for the world
To keep me companyThinking 'bout the universe
Trying to keep my fears at bay
And all I'm hoping for
Is for someone else to want to sayFreedom someday
Are you ready to make the deal?
Freedom someday
Freedom to live for realI don't want no money
But buddy, can you spare the time of day?
'Cause silence is I'm sure
The highest price we payI don't wish my troubles on anyone
But I can wish them well
So I'm knocking on your door
'Cause there's something I would like to sayFreedom someday
I'm ready to make the deal
Freedom someday
Freedom to live for realSomehow life goes on
But when it's said and done it's such a bitter pill
When you think the battle's won
You hear the distant guns of all those fighting stillThe battle's in our heads
One we always lose whichever side we choose
We can paint the planet red
Or black and blue instead but we are one worldI'm not chasing miracles
But I don't choose to be this way
Now all I'm hoping for
Is for someone else to hear me sayFreedom someday
Are you ready to make the deal?
Freedom someday
Freedom to live for realFreedom someday
A life we won't have to steal
Freedom someday
Freedom to live for realAnd if our time has come
And if our race is run who will pay the bill?
When you think the battle's won
You hear the distant guns of all those fighting stillBut the battle's in our heads
One we always lose whichever side we choose
Paint the planet red
Or black and blue instead but we are one worldSomehow life's going on
But when it's said and done it's such a bitter pill
When you think the battle's won
You hear the distant guns of all those fighting stillThe battle's in our heads
One we always lose whichever side we choose
We can paint the planet red
Or black and blue instead but we are one world
