All of my life 
I've been tempted I've been torn 
What's wrong and what's right 
Since the day that I was born 
And god knows when I was lonely 
I was easily deceived 
What do I want what do I need

Knocking on wood 
Leaves me standing in the rain
So misunderstood 
God I've lost my way again 
Through the darkness of old notions 
It's such a pitiful reprieve 
What do I want what do I need

Freedom from the devil's chain 
Freedom from temptation's reign 
Freedom from the overwhelming 
Feeling that evil never sleeps
What do I want what do I need

I cross my heart 
I am not the only one 
And right from the start 
Everything under the sun 
It dies by some desire 
And faith to some degree
What do I want what do I need

I need to be free 
I need to be free 
I need to be free
