Freedom Lyrics - Monterey - The Milk Carton Kids

Freedon rings louder now 

Listen up hear the sound 

Screaming as the shots ring out 

That's what freedom sounds like now 

Beating drums, father's sons 

Teach 'em well till Kingdom Come 

Steal the daylight from the sun 

That's what freedom has become 

Stand over the shadow of a man 

Staring at his lifetime with blood-stained hands 

What had you planned to say? 

Underground, out to sea 

Bodies come to rest in peace 

Fighting for the right for more 

That's what freedom has in store 

Asphalt burns, unsoled feet 

Vacant eyes in defeat 

Lost the thread on very dream 

That's what freedom's come to mean 

Stand behind the handle of a gun 

Staring down the future daring time to run 

Like time could run away 

Freedom's glowing sadly now 

Listen up, look around 

Candles burn in memory 

Freedom is a fading dream
