Overk** - Live Young, Die Free lyrics

The distant sound of mercy ringing in my eyes. Far from the ma**es fades away. Closed my eyes and waited for the pain to pa**, Recalled a little story heard today... Yeah, I'm feeling trapped, So locked away, Caught in a downward spiral... In, into the black, I won't be back, Yeah I'll be here a while... Don't need to see, your face. Don't need to hear a word you say, Don't need to know, your name, Or why you're here... Shadows of the past appear in front of me. Into the ma**es disappear. The sound of silence ringing for a greater good, To this point I can't beleive my ears... Yeah, coming unwrapped, Starting to fray. Walking the final mile... In, into the black, I won't back, Choose to be here a while... Then I saw your face, And I heard the words you said. Then I recalled your name, And why I'm here... When I look into your eyes an' saw how much you cried, An' I had a revelation. The pain wouldn't pa**, the scars they would last, Into God's creation. Blessed secrets holding me... Then we all closed our eyes, an' laid down and sighed: Live young die free! A distant chime of mercy ringing one last time. Into the ma**es turns to clay... Molded into what is now, the greater good To close the story yesterday... Don't need to see your face, Don't need to hear a word you say. Don't need to know your name, Or why you're here... Then a child of a liar put his hands into the fire, Called it discontention. And a man with the word repeated what he heard, Led to ma** confusion. Blessed secrets, agony... Then the child closed his eyes and laid down and died. Live young die free.
