lyrics

How am I supposed to know?
What to do with it, what to say
What to play up or play down
Ooo, freedom
So unbearable to watch
So untenable to chase
Not everything can be changed
History, trapped in your face

How am I supposed to be?
Knowing you, when you don’t know me
I can’t change the face I see,
And you can’t face the change I need
Ooo, freedom
In the grave or in the tree
From the plains to the city
Chains to build the reverie
Chains to build the reverie
Chains to build the reverie

There’s nickel, there’s lead,
there’s copper in my head
There’s bones in my bed
There’s silver in your hand
There’s leather in my skin
There’s gold in the land

How are you supposed to see
That which you cannot perceive
Haven’t been taught to believe
When you’re living in a dream
Ooo, freedom
Ooo, is for some
Ooo, in dreams
Yeah, in dreams
Ooo, the reverie
Chains to build the reverie
Chains to build the reverie
Chains to build the reverie
