Music & Lyrics by
Martin Tanger
You’re telling me that I’m still free
Though you’ll decide what’s best for me
So how do I fit into your plan?
Please tell me so I’ll understand
A lie by any other name
Does the damage just the same
As we render all that you demand
And hope someday we’ll understand
Chorus
If I had three wishes tonight
I’d use them all
So we could move toward the light
Before we fall down too far
And lose who we are
‘Cause it’s happening
There's no heroes here that I can see
Only gods of tin and sophistry
But I’ll speak my mind while I still can
And hope someday you’ll understand
Now don’t tell me that your right’s divine
If you think you’re gonna take what’s mine
So come and get it if you can
And then I think you’ll understand
REPEAT CHORUS
