[00:26.606] If I were free
[00:31.386] I would run into battles with flowers and hugs
[00:38.387] And bow at the boots of our well-oiled thugs
[00:44.865] Yes, if I were free
[00:52.362] If it were me
[00:57.352] I would yell out "I love you!" to all I passed
[01:04.091] I would disrobe and disco and rip off my mask
[01:10.805] Yes, if I were free
[01:14.749] I'd be the 'U' that crossed the 'i' to simply 'b'
[01:19.843] Mining our reflections at the bottom of the sea
[01:25.512] What did you see?
[01:29.587] I saw that you and I forever have been free
[01:34.472] The light became too heavy and I fell into a dream
[01:40.297] What did you dream?
[02:07.543] I dreamed a wind that would sweep
[02:13.237] Every castle made of sand
[02:18.070] Out across the open holy land
[02:24.104] Oh, if this were free
[02:30.374] If this were free
[02:35.050] We'd be free of the terror of the grave
[02:41.058] And fear masquerading as the brave
[02:46.909] Oh, if this were free
[03:01.695] I woke upon a pig of red, white and blue
[03:06.188] The circus got too heavy so we fell into the zoo
[03:12.065] What did you feel?
[03:15.957] I felt the fear that every queer does in his head
[03:20.477] First thing to starting over, I made sure I was dead
[03:26.511] What did you dream?
[04:11.389] Swimming with ancients, laughing, tired and getting lost
[04:19.017] We took our left, remember, when we leaned upon the cross
[04:24.921] What did you see?
[04:28.996] I saw that you and I forever have been free
[04:33.959] The light became too heavy and I fell into a dream
