Free at last from lovers grip

Least that’s what they say

Time to drink and party on

Lest loneliness steals the day

Yet now I see the freedom gained

Is more unto a curse

Free at last from happiness

I’m left to prove my worth

Lost and cold, set adrift

Unto a freezing sea

Trying to forget the horrid fact

That this freedom isn’t free

I’ve paid in full this horrid fee

Of blood and tears alike

Now I see that living free

Is more akin to tragedy
