Liberation Lyrics - The Echoing Green

If I could hand you a teardrop or two 

Would you taste the pain that binds me? 

Every single trap that I fall into 

Takes a little peace from inside me 

This is a question of heart 

This is the answer torn apart 

This is a fierce endeavor 

To face my fears forever...and let it go 

I take this pain and let it go... 

Freedom comes with eyes wide open 

Hope unchained in pure devotion 

To freedom... 

In my mind there's a picture of me 

A memory of the man I used to be 

I used to have a faith like thunder 

But now I feel it falling under 

The weight of a good day, gone black 

The weight of a heart under attack 

This is where I stop pretending 

That I'm not in need of mending...and let it go 

I take this hate and let it go... 

Freedom comes with eyes wide open 

Hope unchained in pure devotion 

To freedom... 

I once heard someone say the joke's on me 

Pride has turned my faith to fallacy 

This is where I cast the old man down 

This is where I turn my faith around
