Freebird II

I've learned how not to miss
 The age of tenderness that I
 Am so lucky to have seen once
 And now that I've become older
 I've learned how to brush over
 My history and how it's sequenced
 When I think about you
 I see a person who
 Hasn't existed for a long time
 Before you started using
 Before I starting choosing
 To do the same thing for the same reasons
 The first name I called you
 Is not a name at all
 More of a duty than a function
 Often an execution
 Often with deep confusion of
 'Who was I when that name was just mine?'
 ♪
 Like a serpent charmer negotiating harm
 I live with a basket of your silence
 And as the years record I can feel it growing board
 But I keep the top on in the meantime
 When I pass my reflection
 There isn't any question of
 Where the person in it came from
 When I catch myself thinking
 And hear the voice that speaks inside
 I know where I got my brain from
 Every step I've strayed from and followed
 Led me to the same location
 Every act I've forsake and borrowed
 A delivery to now
 And I've never wondered how
 I came to be, I feel free like you promised I'd be
 Free, I feel free like you promised I'd be
 Free, I feel free like you promised I'd be
 Free, I feel free like you promised I'd be
