[Verse 1]
Got a problem here now or am I mistaken?
Devil's gone to sleep and the Lord is forsaken
Got a problem here just as heavy as stone
Look what we've done, baby, on our own

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, why do we sing this lonesome song
We've been running for so long

[Chorus]
When the light shines down, you see
And all the breath in this body leaves
This ain't the last life I will lead, aooh
I'll be free
I'll be free
I'll be free

[Verse 2]
Hunger of anger and thirst for riches
Handful of angels, a handful of witches
Surrounded by miles of mud-filled ditches
What are these shadows that my mind dismisses?

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, why do we sing this lonesome song
We've been running for so long
[Chorus]
When the light shines down, you see
And all the breath in this body leaves
This ain't the last life I will lead, aooh
I'll be free

[Verse 3]
This is a story we all know by heart
This is the end, this is the start
We wanna move like the birds in flight
Not to wander on this road all night
Well, are we nothing but flesh and bone?
Doomed to wander and cursed to roam
No matter where I'm headed, I am going home

[Chorus]
Well, when the light shines down, you see
And all the breath in this body leaves
When the light shines down, you see
And all the breath in this body leaves
This ain't the last life I will lead, aooh
I'll be free
I'll be free
I'll be free
