Break Free

break free they say

the fire will help you make them scared

it's a mighty fire,

unlike the one at the campfire last fall.

the stone cell that surrounds your holy ghost power will fall

it will crumble down and you will see them:

standing, fighting and grabbing at each others necks

tonight they bring you peace

but tomorrow they bring you turmoil

break free they shout only if you dare

you're like a puppy being scratched behind the ears

try

just try to break free
