I know your whole world hangs on this, no surprise I saw the signs, I saw the future in your eyes, saw straight through the lies. You said goodbye but never stayed, I stood in the doorway anyway, I waited just to see your face, but all you did was walk away, you loved me free. I search the world to find your name, but you’re so far, you’re not the same, tell me what you saw in me, was it hope or tragedy? I’m telling lies to freedom, freedom say your goodbyes, look at my eyes why be surprised, I spoke the truth where were the lies? I’m telling lies to freedom, freedom hear my cries, if this is love where was the sound when your love died out? I know your heart was never sure, but what we had was real and pure, what we had is no more now, but it was what we wanted then for sure. Did you find peace when you left me here, did you take it all disappear? I know I shouldn’t be the one to stay, but someday I’ll leave too someday. Tell me what you saw that day when you looked at me and turned away, was I love you couldn’t keep or a promise way too deep? I watched the seasons change their skin while I was standing where you’d been, your shadow faded from the wall but I still heard your name in all. Every road I didn’t take, every promise bound to break, I carried you in everything even when I couldn’t breathe. I know I shouldn’t be going but I can’t stay the same, I have to leave you someday even if freedom feels like pain. Say it slow say it clean, say the words you never said to me, if love was ever really true why did I have to lose you? I’m telling lies to freedom, freedom say my goodbyes, take my leave this can’t be me, I can’t stay where I’m not free. I’m telling lies to freedom, freedom hear the truth, if this was love tell me now where was the sound of you?
