I wanted to be free once,
Free from everything that weighed me down.
I got it to work, I made myself free.
Hey freedom, what do you want me to be?
I don't want to move, I don't want to run,
Is this being free? Not having anything to do?
Oh, such a beautiful lie, a lie that haunts me.
When you have nothing to do, you're useless.
When you have to do everything, you're stressed.
When you do something, you're wasting your potential.
Where is the freedom? Where is the light?
Oh I see it now. Freedom is not free.
It's not what we want it to be
It's a knot, a tight intricate knot,
That ties everything around us,
To everything that we ever will be.
Tighter it is, more free you get.
A net of responsibilities,
Tied by knots of freedom.
-Loki
