My life is so empty, nothing to live for
My mind is all confusion, 'cos I defied the law
When you weren't there to help me, I lost my mind and ran
I never had no trouble before this all began

My life is so empty, nothing to live for
My mind is all confusion, 'cos I defied the law
When you weren't there to help me, I lost my mind and ran
I never had no trouble before this all began

You walk through the subway, his eyes burn a hole in your back
A footstep behind you, he lunges prepared for attack
Scream for mercy, he laughs as he's watching you bleed
Killer behind you, his blood lust defies all his needs

My innocent victims are slaughtered with wrath and despise
The mocking religion of hatred that burns in the night
I have no one, I'm bound to destroy all this greed

Unchain the colours before my eyes,
Yesterday's sorrows tomorrow's white lies
Scan the horizon the clouds take me higher,
I shall return from out of fire

Tears for remembrance and tears for joy,

Tears for somebody and this lonely boy
Out in the madness the all seeing eye
Flickers above us to light up the sky

(Solo: Dave Murray)
(Solo: Dennis Stratton)

Unchain the colours before my eyes,

Just sixteen a pickup truck,
Out of money out of luck
I've got nowhere to call my own,
Hit the gas and here I go

Chorus:

I'm running free yeah, I'm running free
I'm running free yeah, Oh I'm running free

Spent the night in an L. A. jail
And listened to the sirens wail
They ain't got a thing on me,
I'm running wild I'm running free

Chorus

Pulled her at the Bottle Top,

I was born into a scene of angriness and greed, and dominance and persecution.
My mother was a queen, my dad I've never seen, I was never meant to be.
And now I spend my time looking all around,
For a man that's nowhere to be found.
Until I find him I'm never gonna stop searching,
I'm gonna find my man, gonna travel around.

*Chorus*:
'Cos I'm a wrathchild, well I'm a wrathchild.
