Is Freedom just another word

by Shelby Bridges   Nov 1, 2005


Do I wish upon the stars tonight
or wonder where I'll be
Dream a dream or dream of two
or sometimes maybe three
Do I walk alone on distant roads
that I can't hardly find
Or stand alone just by myself
to gain a peace of mind

Do I seek a piece of me
where theres nothing left to show
Or something in a shadow
that was lost some time ago
Is there somewhere in a darkness
that I don't understand
or maybe just a program
of another master's plan

Do I find myself or feel again
someone else's needs
Like ten thousand times before
I have tried to succeed
And then as I realize
the count can be but none
Because the road I've stood alone
can't be divided by one

So do we travel these roads
without a feeling to understand
Do we walk among the last
or do we walk because we can
Just like freedom is another word

I heard that sometime ago
or is freedom just freedom
maybe something we don't know
