We're dancing free
but we're stuck
here underground
And everybody trying
to figure they way out
Hey hey hey hey
All we ever wanted to say
Was chased erased
and then thrown away
And day to day
we live in a daze
We march all around
til' the sun goes down
night children
Broken dreams
no sunshine
endless crimes
we long for freedom
freedom
You're free
but in your mind
your freedom's in a bind
Oh make it rain
ain't a thing
in the sky to fall
And when the truth goes BANG
the shouts splatter out
And when you're growing down
instead of growing up
Tell me are you bold enough
to reach for love
He lived in sector ten
He had a friend
named Benjamin
Sail away sail away Susan
So strong
for so long
All I wanna do
is sing my simple song
Square or round
rich or poor
At the end of day and night
all we want is more
I keep my feet
on solid ground
and use my wings
when storms come around
I keep my feet
on solid
for freedom
You're free
but in your mind
your freedom's in a bind
Oh make it rain
ain't a thing
in the sky to fall
And when the truth goes BANG
the shouts splatter out
And when you're growing down
instead of growing
Tell me are you bold enough
to reach for love

my regards
And when the world
just treats you wrong
Just come with me
and I'll take you home
No need to pack a bag
Who put your life
in the danger zone
You running dropping
like a rolling stone
No time to pack a bag
You just can't stop your hurt
from hanging on
The old man dies
and then a baby's born
Chan chan chan
change your life
And when the world
just treats you wrong
Just come with us
and we'll take you home
