Butch Walker
I Wanna Be Free
[Verse 1]
Is there a heart inside the night?
I can feel its vital signs
The beat goes dry and the spirit dies
Oh, I wanna dig this Tinseltown
Till it's six feet underground
It's safe to say, timing is everything (Is everything)

[Chorus]
I wanna be free
I wanna be loved
I wanna be more than you're thinking of
Everything seems to be estranged when you're alone

[Verse 2]
Played our parts and covered ground
Drowned our sorrows, laid 'em down
My memory is keeping the effigy (The effigy)

[Chorus]
I wanna be free
I wanna be loved
I wanna be more than you're thinking of
Everything seems to be estranged when you're alone
(Oooh, oooh)
[Bridge]
One day, I will stop keeping track
(Is it me? Is it you?)
And give myself time to react
(As a proud boy would do)
One day
One day

[Chorus]
I wanna be free
I wanna be loved
I wanna be more than you're thinking of
Everything seems to be estranged when you're alone
Wanna be free
Wanna be loved
Wanna be more than you're thinking of
Everything seems to be estranged when you're alone
Oh, yeah!
