Here I Am

[Verse 1]
They say that freedom is something you make
Independence, some sort of change
Happiness, a smile, and a fleeting look
Who appears inside the soul i strew so with love?
[Chorus]
Here I am okay, okay
There I go alone, easy
Here I am to stay, thank you
There I go alone
[Verse 2]
A cat purrs to prove that she's still a cat
A dog barks at you to prove he's all that
And you'll destroy everything clear in your path
To scream that you're human and want something back
[Chorus]
Here I am okay, okay
There I go alone, easy
Here I am to stay, thank you
There I go alone
[Verse 3]
A child you were born, a child you'll return
Counting your miles, scarred by what you've earned
Penetrate the silence with a silence all your own
Only you can know what's still left to burn
[Chorus/Outro]
Here I am okay, okay
There I go alone, easy
Here I am to stay, thank you
When I was afraid
There I was okay, okay
There I go alone, easy
Here I am to stay, thank you
When I was afraid
