When will the hurt
Just go away?
I guess it won't,
So please don't stay.

And I'm wishing it'd all
Exit my mind,
I've already wasted
Too much time.

You feel so alive...

Free to grow and
Free to thrive...

We had a drink
To the backs we stabbed.
We cleaned the knives
And had a laugh.
Did they bleed on the carpets
(Head to toe/left untold)?
Just means that they did not know
To get too close.

You feel so alive...

Free to grow and
Free to thrive...

Now you thought the road
Would make it all go away,
It reinforces the
Way it'll stay.
And I'm wishing it'd all
Exit my mind,
I've already wasted
Too much time.

You feel so alive,
Free to grow and
Free to thrive...

Recall the days,
Recall the hours.
Raining down like
Cool, cool showers.

We remember, we remember all of your days,
Before the motel lights and the switchblades.
I'm not buying what you're selling;
It's a trap that we've all fell in.

Now you thought the road
Would make it all go away,
It reinforces the
Way it'll stay.
And I'm wishing it'd all
Exit my mind,
I've already wasted
Too much precious time, oh yeah.

You feel so alive,
Free to grow and
Free to thrive...

Recall the days,
Recall the hours.
Raining down like
Cool, cool showers.

Free to call and
Free to ring.
Sometimes I can not think
For myself.
