A man calls his home
A darkened street
And all who drive by
They stare and wonder
A child in the night
No pride to keep
Is never a name
Just a number
So how can you say
You'll flight for me
When all that you have
You stole from others
You're hiding the truth
From all who see
Placing the weight
On their shoulders
You tell me
Eternity is free
On a television
Evangelistic dream
No one knows
Where it goes
And we all thought we'd be so sorry
The young and free
They will be
Tomorrows crime
Until we tell them why
They live to die
We'll say good-bye
One day they'll
Finally be
Beyond the dream
So young and free
And all I see
I walk in the park
And my eyes see
Writings of all revealing reasons
Violence displayed for all who see
Murals that mystify the seasons
I never can trade my world for you
Cause I've been so addicted
To voluntary rules
No one knows
Where it goes
And we all thought we'd be so sorry
The young and free
They will be
Tomorrows crime
Until we tell them why
They live to die
We'll say good-bye
One day they'll
Finally be
Beyond the dream
So young and free
And all I see
Live to die
We'll poverty kills the life I need
I paid my dues and life's a struggle
Closing my eyes i'm almost free
I'm anxious to know what were after
So I'm slicing the veis
That chain my soul
And finally escaping this solitary hell
No one knows
Where it goes
And we all thought we'd be so sorry
The young and free
They will be
Tomorrows crime
Until we tell them why
They live to die
We'll say good-bye
One day they'll
Finally be
Beyond the dream
So young and free
Until we tell them why
They live to die
We'll say good-bye
