We Just Wanted Freedom - Confide

You can bring us down but you’re listening now

We’ve heard it all before

You’re not happy how things turned out, but it’s our band and not yours

It’s funny how we’re friends until one of us succeeds, but you can’t take back

what you said so here’s these lyrics to read

We just wanted freedom from a label, control and contracts;

And write for what we believe in. Is that too much to ask?

The words of hate only show their pain that they can’t seem to escape

They say what they need to say, but they’re never face to face

We knew some couldn’t keep their opinions to themselves

Did you think it would help?

Not from you or anyone else

So you’ve made yourself no different, from the ones that sit alone and express

their hate from behind a screen in the comfort of their home

Your words mean nothing to me 'cause lions don’t lose sleep over the opinions

of sheep
