Freedom Into Slavery Songtext
von Anthem Lights

Sometimes I wonder
Sometimes I feel
If I didn′t know that You would forgive me
If it wasn't so real

Maybe I would act different
Maybe I would be blameless
With forgive and forget left out
Would I still think all this wrong was okay?

Why do I push You away
When I know You can′t be gone?
Why do I fade black and white to gray
When the lines are all clearly drawn?

It seems I found a way, I found a way
To turn freedom into slavery
I found a way, I found a way
To turn freedom into slavery, oh, oh


Still it's making me wonder
See, I believe that I'm free
But somehow knowing I can do anything
Has put chains on me

Right here beside You
I got all that I need
But still I choose to run away
Just because I′m free

Why do I push You away
When I know You can′t be gone?
Why do I fade black and white to gray
When the lines are all clearly drawn?

It seems I found a way, I found a way
To turn freedom into slavery
I found a way, I found a way
To turn freedom into slavery

I found a way, I found a way
To turn freedom into slavery
I found a way, I found a way, oh

So why do I run just 'cause I can
When I don′t even got chains on my hands
See, the problem lies in my own pride
Lord, I need Your help 'cause by myself


It seems I found a way, I found a way
To turn freedom into slavery
I found a way, I found a way
To turn freedom into slavery

I found a way, I found a way
To turn freedom into slavery
I found a way, I found a way

I found a way, I found a way
I found a way, I′m free, I'm free
You know I found a way, I found a way
