Liberty by Switchfoot Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The feeling comes to me in waves
The darkest seas I've ever known
Mine is an odyssey of grace
Mine is a story headed home
[Verse 2]
I tie myself up to the mast
Give up the semblance of control
The sirens sing but I let them pass
'Cause only you could free my soul
[Chorus]
Only you could free my soul
Only you could free my soul
[Verse 3]
Set these broken bones to cast
Stitch my wounds with holy sutures
Every saint has got a past
But every sinner's got a future
[Chorus]
Only you could free my soul
Only you could free my soul
[Post-Chorus]
Show me the freedom from these chains
Show me a battlefield that saves
That world is still a world away
But you are my liberty
[Bridge 2]
Free my soul, free my soul
And let liberty flow
Like a flood, let it go
And I'll let the past go
I've come running back home
And I'll make it, I know
All my love, all my hope
Only you could free my soul
Come on, free my soul
Only You could free my soul
[Outro]
I tie myself up to the mast
I tie myself up to the mast
And let it go
Yeah
Only you could free my soul
The feeling comes to me in waves
The darkest seas I've ever known
Mine is an odyssey of grace
Mine is a story headed home
[Verse 2]
I tie myself up to the mast
Give up the semblance of control
The sirens sing but I let them pass
'Cause only you could free my soul
[Chorus]
Only you could free my soul
Only you could free my soul
[Verse 3]
Set these broken bones to cast
Stitch my wounds with holy sutures
Every saint has got a past
But every sinner's got a future
[Chorus]
Only you could free my soul
Only you could free my soul
[Post-Chorus]
Show me the freedom from these chains
Show me a battlefield that saves
That world is still a world away
But you are my liberty
[Bridge 2]
Free my soul, free my soul
And let liberty flow
Like a flood, let it go
And I'll let the past go
I've come running back home
And I'll make it, I know
All my love, all my hope
Only you could free my soul
Come on, free my soul
Only You could free my soul
[Outro]
I tie myself up to the mast
I tie myself up to the mast
And let it go
Yeah
Only you could free my soul
