Another minute in this prison cell and i'm losin' it
If there's a heaven then i'm stuck in hell and i'm over it
Counting the scratches on a concrete wall and it added up
23 years and nothing but a dot dot dot
23 years and I am who I once was not
I'm lying in the dark but I am not alone
Singing out my heart to a song I've never known
I'm free as I will ever be
Free as a melody
I used to dream about the day they'd say you
are
free
to
leave
I used to lay awake the whole damned night so I wouldn't dream
But now I'm sleeping like a free man traded his heart with me
Finally I remember every wasted night
I'm lying in the dark but I am not alone
Singing out my heart to a song I've never known
I'm free as I will ever be
Free as a melody
I'll take another day
I'll open up my eyes
Find a better way to lead a better life
I'm free as I will ever be
Free as a melody
I'm lying in the dark but I am not alone
Singing out my heart to a song I've never known
I'm free as I will ever be
I'll take another day
I'll open up my eyes
Find a better way to lead a better life
I'm free as I will ever be
Free as a melody
