"Free" (05/03/03) Brian Eggertsen, All Rights Reserved There's tip-toe footsteps in the hall, With a bag and a baby she pulls out of the drive. Stops at an all night mini-mall, Got suplies, bruises to hide and alibies to write. She can still feel his raised right hand, Late night screaming, broken glass a wound grabbing for salt... SHE WANTS TO BE FREE, JUST WANTS TO BE FREE, FROM MONSTERS IN HER HEAD AND ALL HIS CONSTANT THREATS. SHE WANTS TO BE FREE, JUST WANTS TO BE FREE. WANTS A BETTER WORLD, FOR HER LITTLE GIRL. JUST WANTS TO BE FREE... Baby's crying in the backseat, Can't risk the chance by stopping got to keep moving on. Soon they'll both need a place to sleep, Gets off at the next exit been on the run since dawn. Dirty bed and no hot water, Two dollar motel rooms is not her style but GOOD ENOUGH... SHE WANTS TO BE FREE, JUST WANTS TO BE FREE, FROM MONSTERS IN HER HEAD AND ALL HIS CONSTANT THREATS. SHE WANTS TO BE FREE, JUST WANTS TO BE FREE. WANTS A BETTER WORLD, FOR HER LITTLE GIRL. JUST WANTS TO BE FREE... |
