Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, I think I finally found me a sure-fire way to forget
It's so simple, I'm surprised I hadn't done thought of it before yet
It's foolproof, well, it's foolhardy, maybe, but who knows
Anyway, here I am walking toward where the cold, dark water flows
'Cause all it takes is
[Verse 2]
One dyin' and a buryin'
One dyin' and a buryin'
Some cryin', six carrying me
I wanna be free
[Verse 3]
Huh-oh, I wanna be free
Free from all this heartache and regret
And free pining for the love I can't forget
The love that once was warm and then just somehow turned to hate
Made my life a prison from which there's only one escape and that's
[Verse 4]
One dyin' and a buryin'
One dyin' and a buryin'
Some cryin', six carrying me
I wanna be free
[Verse 5]
One dyin' and a buryin'
One dyin' and a buryin'
Some cryin', six carrying me
I wanna be free
