Do you see what I see?
Truth is an offense
You silence for your confidence
[Verse 1]
Do you hear what I hear?
Doors are slamming shut
Limit your imagination
Keep you where they must
Do you feel what I feel?
Bittering distress
Who decides what you express?
Do you take what I take?
Endurance is the word
Moving back instead of forward
Seems to me absurd
[Chorus]
Doesn't matter what you see
Or into it what you read
You can do it your own way
If it's done just how I say
[Verse 2]
Independence limited
Freedom of choice is made for you, my friend
Freedom of speech is words that they will bend
Freedom with their exception
Do you fear what I fear?
Living properly
Truths to you are lies to me
Do you choose what I choose?
More alternatives
Energy derives from both the plus and negative
Do you need what I need?
Boundaries overthrown
Look inside
To each his own
Do you trust what I trust?
Me, myself and I
Penetrate the smoke screen
I see through the selfish lie
[Chorus]
Doesn't matter what you see
Or into it what you read
You can do it your own way
If it's done just how I say
[Verse 3]
Independence limited
Freedom of choice is made for you, my friend
Freedom of speech is words that they will bend
Freedom with their exception
[Guitar Bridge & Solo]
[Verse 4
Do you know what I know?
Your money and your wealth
You silence just to hear yourself
Do you want what I want?
Desire not a thing
I hunger after independence
Lengthen freedom's ring
[Chorus]
Doesn't matter what you see
Or into it what you read
You can do it your own way
If it's done just how I say
[Verse 5]
Independence limited
Freedom of choice is made for you, my friend
Freedom of speech is words that they will bend
Freedom no longer frees you
[Outro Chorus]
Doesn't matter what you see
Or into it what you read
You can do it your own way
If it's done just how I say !!!
