Free To Go

Does it really matter now?
This distance
compared to the heart of it all
I know
it seems so small

My eyes burn from taming rivers
my legs from standing, Still
these hands ache from letting go
after holding on for so long
bitter and free, that's all I'll be

I wonder if you'd know me
if you saw my face
Will you remember the smile?
That was only for you
Those whispered words the world heard

Now, they've changed
Oh, now, they've turned
bitter and free, that's all I'll be
without
you - bitter and free -
That's all I'll ever be.
