"Fighting Like Hell To Be Free" lyrics

"Fighting Like Hell To Be Free"

I've never been the type to bite my tongue or swallow pride its true
But I have seen some awful fights and landed on the wrong side of a few
Livin' life by candle light trapped beneath the shadow of a tomb
Filled with all the pages of a life I never thought that I would choose

I'm weary and wasted, I'm guilty of chasing
Some lie that will satisfy grief
But tomorrow at dawn, I'm fightin' like hell to be free

I've wasted my time on cheap thrills and quick money schemes
I've spent my last dime on a high for a moment of relief
But one thing is for certain I have never known a strength inside of me
More bound and determined than to kill my every will of living clean

Oh I'm weary and wasted
I'm guilty of chasing some lie that will satisfy grief
But tomorrow at dawn I'm fightin' like hell to be free

And I'm weary and wasted
I'm guilty of chasing some lie that will satisfy grief
But tomorrow at dawn I'm fightin' like hell to be free
But tomorrow at dawn I'm fightin' like hell to be free
