Taken from "Broken Freedom Song: Live From San Fansisco" so it might be a different version. Corrections welcome. Intro: (4x) Got a song about a soldier Ridin somewhere on a train Empty sleeve pinned to his shoulder And some pills to ease the pain Started drinkin in El Paso He was drunk by San Antone Tellin strangers who were sleepin How he hated goin home CHORUS 1: Just a simple song of freedom He was never fightin for No one’s listenin ’til you need ’em Ain’t no fun to sing that song no more Got a song about a sister Waitin lonesome by the phone For some man who never missed her Ever since he come and gone And it’s harder for a woman With a baby on the way That’s the price of bein’ human When you’re poor enough to pay CHORUS 2: So she listens to the freedom In the silence at her door No one’s missin ’til you need ’em Ain’t no fun to sing that song no more Got a song about a savior Lookin lonesome and afraid At a city full of strangers And a cross he never made And he’s sadder than he’s wiser And a longer way from home And he wonders why his father Left him bleeding and alone CHORUS 3: Just a broken song of freedom And the closing of a door No one’s missin’ til you need ’em Ain’t no fun to sing that song no more

La chanson évoque le parcours difficile de personnes en quête de liberté, à travers les histoires d’un soldat marqué par la guerre, d'une femme qui attend en vain son partenaire, et d’un sauveur perdu parmi des inconnus. Chacun semble porter un poids immense, symbolisé par l'absence et l'isolement, révélant la fragilité des liens humains. À travers ces récits, les luttes individuelles mettent en lumière un sentiment de solitude, d'oubli et la difficulté de ressentir la joie dans un monde où l’écoute des autres se fait rare. Les paroles illustrent ainsi la mélancolie d’un désir de liberté qui ne trouve plus écho.
