Lyrics

Flyleaf

Freedom

From New Horizons 2012

Written by James Culpepper, Jared Hartmann, Lacey Sturm

Lyrics

Freedom

[Chorus]

Oh, freedom

This is for your freedom

Oh, freedom

This is for your freedom

[Verse 1]

Til the road unwinds from the earth

And the world begins in reverse

Feel the peace glowing so bright in my skull

As you wrap around blankets of words

Wrap around blankets of words

[Chorus]

Oh, freedom

This is for your freedom

Oh, freedom

This is for your freedom

[Verse 2]

Bleeding dry the promise of worth

Knowing you were meant for this thirst

Drink it in slowly while life puts a heart in you

Weaving new blankets of words

Weaving new blankets of words

[Chorus]

Oh, freedom

This is for your freedom

Oh, freedom

This is for your freedom

[Bridge]

Leaving your freedom

Dying of freedom

[Verse 3]

Til the road unwinds from the earth

And the world begins in reverse

Feel the peace glowing so bright in my skull

As you wrap around blankets of words

Wrap around blankets of words

Wrap around blankets of words

[Outro]

Oh, freedom (words, words, words)

(Blankets of words, words, words)

Oh, freedom

(Blankets of words, words, words)

Oh, freedom

Blankets of words, words, words
