Oh, I know they say someday time will show me   How to be so cool someday but what about right now   Please someone tell me what do I do while I'm waiting   Waiting to be so cool someday      I know I'm not alone you know just how I feel   We both know the rules but who really knows   How to play this game?      No one will always win, good losers hide the pain   They say everything is fine   No one will hear them complain      But behind those smiles, so much purple rain   It's a wonder anybody ever comes out sane   But they do and freedom it's all up to you      When you're by yourself you get that silent noise   Inside your mind all the party boys trying to fill up   All the empty holes don't let one be her soul      Freedom now you're on your own   Freedom or does it really mean you're just all alone   Freedom either way it's gonna take you home   It just takes you by the hand and says   Now it's time to grow      So my friend you're gonna be alright   Seems like it's all uphill   But then that's the only way to get high   Someday your soul is gonna fly      But don't look back 'cause that's a waste of time   And right now is the time for you to look inside   And you'll see love, love has never gone away      Freedom I've been standing still so long   Freedom I almost forgot you had a song   Freedom shine your light and let us begin   Just take me in our arms I wanna be free again
