Lyrics
They say freedom
Comes to those with every hair in
place
On the edge of extinction
It flickers across your face
In the mirror in the morning
When your life line begins to speak
When you hesitate and blunder
When your smile and grit your teeth
They say that's when
To the world I will declare
We will fly like truth through a
needles eye
To pay the price of freedom
To pay the price of freedom
Your fear of loneliness
I watched it wall (?) you in
You took the line of least resistance
And you let your jailor win
You got to light your way out
Or you will never escape
Reach out and take it
Before it's too late
You say that's when
To the world I will declare
We will fly like truth through a
needles eye
To pay the price of freedom
To pay the price of freedom
Lost in space in the second hand
rides
Hands full of bottles and plastic
bags
Hungry for money, hungry for love
Waiting for the manna from the
heavens above
Yeh only the rich can afford to be
unfaithful
Hey only the rich can sin and keep it
tasteful
But I swear
To the world I will declare
We will fly like truth through a
needles eye
To pay the price of freedom
We will fly like truth through a
needles eye
To pay the price of freedom
To pay the price of freedom
