No Strings

I gave it all away

I suppose I had to know
It's easy come and easy go
All the things that meant to me
I'd trade for new life to live for free

Had to give it all away
No strings to hold me
Praying for the day
Strings are things that once controlled me

You once lived the dreams I made
All you want for all I paid
Above the love, you killed the will
To live, learn life from then until

I gave it all away
No strings could hold me
Baby, night and day
Reflect on things they always told me

I give it all away
No strings to hold me
Praying for the day
Strings are things that once controlled me

Foolish love, blindly trust
So naive
Wasted years, a decade it took to leave

We're through, although you wouldn't know
That hatred finds a way to grow
Nothing left to raise my soul
Chid's love to seize control

I gave it all away
No strings could hold me
Baby, night and day
Reflect on things they always told me

I give it all away
No strings to hold me
Praying for the day
Strings are things that once controlled me

I gave it all away
I gave it all away
