Anthem Lights cover
09. Freedom Into Slavery
Album: Anthem Lights
Artist: Anthem Lights
         
 

Sometimes I wonder
Sometimes I feel
If I didn’t know that You would forgive me
If it wasn’t so real

Maybe I would act different
Maybe I would be blameless
With forgive and forget left out
Would I still think all this wrong was ok

Why do I push You away
When I know You can’t be gone
Why do I fade black and white to grey
When the lines are clearly drawn

It seems I found a way, I found a way
To turn freedom into slavery
I found away, I found away
To turn freedom into slavery

Still it’s making me wonder
See, I believe that I’m free
But somehow knowing I can do anything
Has put chains on me
Right here beside You
I got all that I need
But still I choose to run away
Just because I’m free

Why do I push You away
When I know You can’t be gone
Why do I fade black and white to grey
When the lines are clearly drawn

So why do I run just ‘cause I can
When I don’t even got chains on my hands
See, the problem lies in my own pride
Lord, I need Your help, ‘cause by myself
