Been Set Free Lyrics - Son Volt

I am the voice of Lilli Schull 

Muffled since nineteen three [unverified] 

When my lover became my murderer 

And burned the flesh off of me 

My life's been a burden 

Now I'm going home 

I've been loaded down 

Now I've been set free 

Never saw my child 

Nor heard her little pound 

Ten minutes turned blood cold 

And I leave this earthly ground 

My life's been a burden 

Now I'm going home 

I've been loaded down 

Now I've been set free 

Farewell, family, everyone I've known 

I lived within you, but I rest alone 

May my leaving not be in vain 

Carry on, believe in, remember my name 

My life's been a burden 

Now I'm going home 

I've been loaded down 

Now I've been set free
