lyrics

to live to be free
means something different to me
what will i do as the summer ends?
to live to be free
means something different to me
to have to let out the slack

my rope is getting shorter
as the days pass
the knots tighten
the threads are closer together
the nights longer
with out you
drunken,
lonely,
but with friends
