they say everything can be replaced
yet every distance is not near
so i remember every face
of every man who put me here
i see my light come shining
from the west down to the east
any day now any day now
i shall be released
they say every man needs protection
they say every man must fall
yet i swear i see my reflection
some place so high above this wall
i see my light come shining
from the west down to the east
any day now any day now
i shall be released
standing next to me in this lonely crowd
is a man who swears he’s not to blame
all day long i hear him shout so loud
crying out that he was framed
i see my light come shining
from the west down to the east
any day now any day now
i shall be released
i see my light come shining
from the west down to the east
any day now any day now
i shall be released
any day now any day now
i shall be released
