[Verse 1]
I see it all before me
My past of restless wonder
My days and nights of torment
A world of misery
The bonds of retribution

Come on, come on, set me free
Set me free

I don't ask anything
But if you want to help me
My freedom's everything, now
[Chorus]
Look, my spirt's broken
No will to live
My body's all aching
My hands are tied
I need, I need my freedom
Not your sympathy
Look, you needn't love me
Just set me free
Come on, come on please, set me free
Set me free
[Outro]
I see it all before me
My darkest days of sorrow
Salvation's hand denied me
No hope of liberty
I only ask one question
Please tell me if you can
What good is retribution
Without a helping hand?
