I'm Free

Here's a new song I just wrote, called "I'm Free"....audio/video to come soon...

I’m Free
(Jacobsen, July 2010)

Silence is thickening
As these walls are closing in
I can’t see a thing

Standing on my own
No comfort I’ve ever known
I’m not ready for this

I’m lost
Can’t breathe
This is not the way it was
Supposed to be
I’m tired
Of the tears
And all that I have left
Is me
And they say
I’m free


The illusion I created
Has me trapped in this skin
I can’t move now

You have your reasons why
And I guess I've realized all along I had mine
The secret is out

I’m lost
Can’t breathe
This is not the way it was
Supposed to be
I’m tired
Of the tears
And all that I have left
Is me
And they say
I’m free


I never asked for this freedom
I didn’t plan on alone
Now stranded like a man
Who's been freed to the world
All I've been given are your words
No map is gonna fix this
Maybe if it was the other way
I’d have my getaway

I’m lost
Can’t breathe
This is not the way it was
Supposed to be
I’m tired
Of the tears
And all that I have left
Is me
And they say
I’m free
