Liberty Lyrics

A woman out alone in the night
Too scared to run, too scared to fight
She knows that soon she must die
So she opens her arms to embrace the sky
But god has decreed her worse fate
The man, her body he will violate
Her death, when it comes she will bless
But now, through his pleasure, he is obsessed

Liberty, oh liberty
When oh when will I be free from
Liberty, sweet liberty
Beware the man who offers thee
Your liberty

See the frail old man, as he dies
His thoughts to vague to criticise
What has he done with his own poor life
Surrounded by glamour and bullshit hype
Or the raving madman, who that night will kill
A dozen people or more, just for the thrill
He will get off with a few years, no more
Three years later, standing at your door

Liberty, oh liberty
When oh when will I be free from
Liberty, sweet liberty Beware the man who offers thee
Your liberty, own liberty
I will take from you as you took from me
My liberty

We all should be free, but never will
Always surrounded by the rules
Which we make to help us live
But which in reality only serve
To keep us from what we truly want
Ignore the upper class sneer and the layman's taunt
So the next time the jaws of society bite
Just break out and exercise your right

Liberty, oh liberty
When oh when will I be free from
Liberty, sweet liberty
Beware the man who offers thee
Your liberty, own liberty
I will take from you as you took from me
My liberty
