Stranded

Was I born like this?
Or was a fire to set?
You pick your number, spin the wheel
It placed your bet
There's hills that you climb
There's hills that you take
Somewhere off in the distance
Far away from daybreak
You'll remember me longer than you were able to know me

Last night I was stranded
This morning you're free
Last night I was stranded by the dark horse that walks beside me
Last night I was hanging
No apologies
Last night I was stranded

There's nothing left to hold when everything's broken
There's nothing left to say about words unspoken
There's nothing to hide when you can see there's no regrets
I planted a tree in the shade in which I will never set

Last night I was stranded
This morning you're free
Last night I was stranded by the dark horse that walks beside me
Last night I was hanging, no apologies. Last night I was stranded

And now you're free
Free your way or crawl
Last night I was stranded
This morning you're free
Freedom day
