Let the Embers Burn

"Let the Embers Burn"

And I am free at last
Your tyranny shall hold me no longer
Your secret refrain never existed
Still you don’t see your misdeeds
I am free, I am free, I am free
Your words held me down
I broke the bonds that chained me to the wall

I hear your calling
I won’t answer
No, I won’t answer
Never answer
(‘Cause I am free, I am free, I am free)

I hear your calling
But I won’t answer
No, I won’t answer
Never answer
(‘Cause I am free, I am free, I am free)

I saw through this deception
Your words proved nothing to me at all
Your final victims are the fire that burns inside of me
I’ll prevent future tragedy
You’ll wear the scars from this day on
Your downfall will see me through

I hear your calling
I hear your calling
I hear your calling
But I am free, I am free, I am free

I am free at last
Your tyranny shall hold me no longer
Still you don’t see
No, you don’t see your misdeeds
Your secret refrain never existed
I am free, I am free, I am free
Your words
I am free
Held me down
But now I’m breaking those bonds
And you’re wearing the scars that will prove
That your downfall will see me through

I believe I am free
I know I am free
Your tyranny
It’s over
With the touch of your hand
I am free

 

It is really good, I liked it a lot. Almost envious of that freedom spoken of.


I don't quite get the last two lines though.

 

Not bad, but I've seem your better works

 

Yeah. I don't remember writing or posting this. I was drunk last night.

But thanks for the comments all the same! Maybe I'll take this basic theme and make it better.
