cold in the rain again I stand
scared and alone I'm shaking
you tell me the way and I just can't believe
it's something that's just to show

it hurts me
it hurts you
I can't believe anymore
I'm not this way
I disagree
I am a man now my thoughts are free
of what you had in store for me
I cut the cord and now I'm free
I'm free from the chains you placed on me
now I'm free

I've opened the door and walking in
I look for the worry and it's gone
I feel I'm alive for the very first time
now that I have I wish you could move on

it hurt me
and still hurt you
how can you believe anymore?
I'm not this way
I disagree
I am a man now my thoughts are free
of what you had in store for me
I cut the cord and now I'm free
I'm free from the chains you placed on me
and now I'm free

now I'm free
now I'm free

I don't blame you and I know you try to do what you thought was best for me
don't you blame me if I show you what I don't believe
what I don't believe

I'm not this way
I disagree
I am a man now my thoughts are free
of what you had in store for me
I cut the cord and now I'm free
I'm free from the chains you placed on me
from the chains, from the games, from the pains
now I'm free
