Song | Privilege (Set Me Free) |
Artist | Patti Smith |
Album | Easter |
I see it all before me: | |
the days of love and torment; | |
the nights of rock-and-roll. | |
I see it all before me. | |
Sometimes my spirit's empty; | |
don't have the will to go on. | |
I wish someone would send me | |
energy. | |
Give me something. | |
Give me something to give. | |
Oh, God, give me something: | |
a reason to live. | |
My body is aching. | |
Don't want sympathy. | |
Come on. Come and love me. | |
Come on. Set me free. | |
Set me free. | |
The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want. | |
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures. | |
He leadeth me beside the still waters. | |
He restoreth my soul. | |
He leadeth me through the path of righteousness for His name's sake. | |
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, | |
I will fear no evil, for Thou art with me. | |
Hey, Lord, I'm waitin' for you. | |
Oh, God, I'm waitin' for you; | |
waitin' to open Your ninety-eight wounds | |
and be Thee, be Thee. | |
Lead me, oh, lead me. | |
Leave me something. | |
Leave me something to live. | |
Oh, God, give me something: | |
a reason to live. | |
I don't want no handout; | |
no, not sympathy. | |
Come on. Come and love me. | |
Come on. Set me free. | |
Set me free. | |
Come on. Set me free | |
Set me free . . . | |
Oh, I'm so young, so goddamn young. | |
Oh, I'm so young, so goddamn young. | |
Oh, I'm so young, so goddamn. | |
Set me free. | |
In the presence of my enemies, | |
Thou anointest my head with oil. | |
My cup runneth over. | |
Surely, goodness and mercy shall follow me | |
all the days of my life. | |
And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever. | |
Ah, damn, goddamn, goddamn, goddamn. | |
Here I am. |
I see it all before me: | |
the days of love and torment | |
the nights of rockandroll. | |
I see it all before me. | |
Sometimes my spirit' s empty | |
don' t have the will to go on. | |
I wish someone would send me | |
energy. | |
Give me something. | |
Give me something to give. | |
Oh, God, give me something: | |
a reason to live. | |
My body is aching. | |
Don' t want sympathy. | |
Come on. Come and love me. | |
Come on. Set me free. | |
Set me free. | |
The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want. | |
