Always thought I needed a guardian And now that I've got one, I wanna be free I don't wanna live my life unhappily I'm locked up in chains, laid down on the floor I've been down this road before I'm not gonna cry, I'm not gonna be No matter how hard it might be
[Chorus]: I wanna be free From the dark that lives deep inside of me Free from all the eyes I see watching over me Don't want you to be there Don't want you to care for me anymore I wanna be free of the guardian I am the guardian
[Verse 2]: The small town girl that I'm looking for There's nothing I'd like more To feel like a child, somewhere within Nothing left beneath this skin Too tired to live, too tired to die So I just stay high I just wanna be [?] Should I just keep trying?
I wanna be free From the dark that lives deep inside of me Free from all the eyes I see watching over me Don't want you to be there Don't want you to care for me anymore I wanna be free of the guardian I am the guardian
I wanna be free From the dark that lives deep inside of me Free from all the eyes I see watching over me Don't want you to be there Don't want you to care for me anymore I wanna be free of the guardian I am the guardian
I am the guardian I am the guardian I am the guardian
