[Pre-Chorus]

[Verse 2]

I wanted freedom, bound and restricted

[Pre-Chorus]

Bury it

I won't let you bury it

I won't let you smother it

[Post-Chorus]

Ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

Ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

Ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah

[Refrain]

Yeah, you will suck the life out of me

[Pre-Chorus]

Bury it

I won't let you bury it

I won't let you smother it

I won't let you murder it

[Chorus]

And our time is running out

Our time is running out

You can't push it underground

You can't stop it screaming out

How did it come to this?

[Post-Chorus]

Ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

Ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

Ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah
