Desertor

Petra

Defector

You used to play their games
You used to stay the same
They used to hold you back
They knew the best attack
They thought they had a better hold on you
They thought that you would always stay true blue
They couldn't stop you - they had no defense
You went under the wire - you went over the fence

Defector - you broke the chains away
Defector - a higher power you obey
Now they have no hold on you - you've broken through
But don't forget to read the signs 'cause
You still live behind - enemy lines
Defector

They used to drag you down
They used to have you bound
Just like a ball and chain
But they could not restrain
They thought that you could never break away
They thought that you would always go their way
They had you tied up habitually
They never figured you could ever get free

You got away clean but it don't come free
Another man paid with His on agony for...
Freedom
Freedom

Desertor

Solías jugar sus juegos
Solías mantenerte igual
Solían retenerte
Sabían cuál era el mejor ataque
Pensaban que tenían un mejor control sobre ti
Pensaban que siempre serías leal
No podían detenerte, no tenían defensa
Pasaste desapercibido, saltaste la cerca

Desertor, rompiste las cadenas
Desertor, obedeces a un poder superior
Ahora no tienen control sobre ti, has logrado escapar
Pero no olvides leer las señales
Porque aún vives detrás de las líneas enemigas
Desertor

Solían arrastrarte hacia abajo
Solían tenerte atado
Como una bola y cadena
Pero no podían retenerte
Pensaban que nunca podrías escapar
Pensaban que siempre seguirías su camino
Te tenían atado habitualmente
Nunca imaginaron que podrías liberarte

Escapaste limpiamente pero no es gratis
Otro hombre pagó con su propia agonía por...
Libertad
Libertad
