"We Are Free" lyrics

A hundred thousand words, we pray everyday
A hundred thousand cries, we hide the same way
Ticking clocks are marching, we silently watch
Waiting for a sign from above

We're pure in our worship, but dirty within
Easy to repent, too easy to sin
So still I wonder why, atonement we call it
If first we don't free our souls?

So here we are, willing to change
Ready to start again

We are free! With new eyes, now willing to see
We are free! Strong enough to believe
We are free! If we'll build
Our strength on our knees
We are free... we'll be free!

Lies can hide the fears, we carry within
But scars will remain and they'll mark our skin
Playing' a part, can't mean we're reborn
Pretending can't truly brings control

So here we are, willing to change
Ready to start again

We are free! With new eyes, now willing to see
We are free! Strong enough to believe
We are free! If we'll build
Our strength on our knees
We'll be free, ooh!

Not a question, not a prayer
Warms the cold inside
Inner fights are never ending
If we don't fix our minds
With forgiveness, with redemption
New horizons come
Like a sparkle, like a source
It will bring new life...

We are free! With new eyes, now willing to see
We are free! Strong enough to believe
We are free! If we'll build our strength
On our knees
We are free!
We'll be free!
