[verse 1] when i was five i nearly drown, swept up by a current lucky that i was found. At ten faced death again, at the tip of a kids ball point pen. Mushrooms in the food, seemed all good though breathing is better i soon understood. [Pre-chorus] how many times have I cheated my demise i should sell it for profit build a Franchise [Chorus] I wonder why, haven't I been taken from this terrible pain Forced day to day to live with the strain so I sit here nice and still is there some divine will what is the plan for me most days i just want to be set free [Verse 2] At nineteen my father passed away, drank myself near death the same day. A few years later under an engine block seems i still had some time on the clock. from the car that i was driving, yet that semi truck kept on thriving. [Pre-chorus] how many times have I worn some special disguise so that even death found himself in cold surprise [Chorus] I wonder why, haven't I been taken from this terrible pain Forced day to day to live with the strain so I sit here nice and still is there some divine will what is the plan for me most days i just want to be set free [Bridge] even lightning doesn't scare me only cause it hit the tree. split it clear in two, shot spikes between he and you some how managed to miss me come on lord just set me free. [Chorus] I wonder why, haven't I been taken from this terrible pain Forced day to day to live with the strain so I sit here nice and still is there some divine will what is the plan for me most days i just want to be set free wonder what's next?
