[Verse 1]
How many mistakes can I make 'fore I start to see?
How much love will it take to make me not wanna leave?
How many tears can I cry 'fore all my tears run dry?
Will I ever be free? Will I ever be free?
Lord, I wanna be free

[Chorus]
Well, I'm a broken writer, I'm a restless fighter, and I'm lookin' for a little hope
I'm a shadowed thinker, I'm a one-eyed blinker at the end of his rope
I'm a dead man walkin', I'm a preacher talkin' about love and how to be free
I'm a dyin' ghost with a heart like most, but Lord, ain't no one else like me

[Verse 2]
Lookin' back at the promises that I could never keep
I wonder if there was ever any truth at all in me
Sometimes I wanna run away, go start over in another place
But I'd never be free
Lord, I'd never be free

[Chorus]
Well, I'm a broken writer, I'm a restless fighter, and I'm lookin' for a little hope
I'm a shadowed thinker, I'm a one-eyed blinker at the end of his rope
I'm a dead man walkin', I'm a preacher talkin' about love and how to be free
I'm a dyin' ghost with a heart like most, but Lord, ain't no one else like me
[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]
I'm a broken writer, I'm a restless fighter, and I'm lookin' for a little hope
I'm a shadowed thinker, I'm a one-eyed blinker at the end of his rope
I'm a dead man walkin', a preacher talkin' about love and how to be free
Lord, I'm a dyin' ghost with a heart like most, but Lord
Oh Lord, ain't no one else like me

[Outro]
Yeah, no one else like me
No one else like me
Oh-oh, yeah
No one else
No one else
No one else
Nobody else
Oh
