Formerly Free Video (MV)

She was just another girl
Spun from different skin
Showed me to another world
Sought me from within
Troubled by the way I loved
Couldn't see the stars
My hands are covered in her blood
Now my grave has been marked

I tried to tell you
To stay away
But you wouldn't listen
You said, "It's okay"
But you don't understand me
No, you just can't see
There's miles behind me
Of the formerly free

She was such a pretty girl
Spitfire full of wine
Short ride on love's tilt-a-whirl
Never truly mine
Learning to see through my eyes
And listen with my ears
I'm searching for my unearned prize
Tryna conquer my fears

You know I warned you
Just to stay away
But you kept coming closer
Saying, "It's okay"
Don't think you understand me
Don't think you can see
That there's miles behind me
Of the formerly free

Didn't I try to tell you
Just to stay away
Why'd you keep coming closer
Why'd you think it's okay
Wish that you'd understood me
Wish that you could see
Trouble's coming with me
For the formerly free

I don't wanna find you
With the formerly free
Oh, I can't bear to see you
Become formerly free
