Desperate Sounds

Soft wind blows through the trees
And the leaves, they fall like rain
The door that you close keeps the weather out
And the dream, begins to change
Felt like I could die, and I'd hide, when the screaming started
Broken glass behind you, you were running for the door
Desperate sounds. My running feet you know they, barely touched the ground, never gonna stop, never turn around
All I know is that I'm free, yeah I'm free He shouted. Oh Yeah
Only looking for truth and my life moved so fast
And most times, it didn't make any sense
You see, my world has just become much too complicated
Is the illusion much too strong,
Is it too late to repent?
Felt like I could die, and I'd hide, when the screaming started
Broken glass behind you, you were running for the door
Only Desperate sounds, My running feet you know they, barely touched the ground, never gonna stop, never turn around, All I know is that I'm free, yeah I’m free He shouted Ahh. . .
I look for words to explain it, the excuses, they're so worn and faded, just words on overused paper, sick and yellowed with time
So I'll just keep running, I can't stop now, Lord, you know the dogs are coming, think I've finally run out of places to hide. Yeah
I still remember Desperate sounds, My running feet you know they, barely touched the ground, never gonna stop, never turn around, All I know is that I'm free, yeah I’m free He shouted
Desperate sounds, My running feet you know they, barely touched the ground, never gonna stop, never turn around, All I know is that I'm free, yeah I'm free He shouted
yeah I'm free He shouted
yeah I'm free He shouted
yeah I'm free He shouted
yeah I'm free He shouted. Ahh-h-h
