Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come and set me free
Come shine a light on me
Come and set me
These chains on me won't let me be
You got the keys, come rescue me
These chains on me won't let me be
Come set me free, come set me free
You got the keys, come rescue me
Come set me free, come set me free
You got the keys, come rescue me
(Woah) yeah (woah) oh
(Woah) come rescue me (woah) oh
(Woah) oh
Whoever says he's in the light
And hates his brother still in darkness
Still in darkness through the night
Above all, we gotta love each other deeply
'Cause love, love, love, does the most to the city
My lips shout for joy when I sing praise of you
When I can feel you inside
And I will (?) the highest of the highs
And make myself the most high
Woah, woah, woah, woah
(Come rescue me)
Woah, woah, woah, woah
(Come rescue me)
Come set me free, come set me free
You got the keys, come rescue me
Come set me free, come set me free
You got the keys, come rescue me
(Woah) yeah (woah) oh
(Woah) come rescue me (woah) oh
(Woah) oh (come set me free) yeah
Woah, woah
And I will ascend the heights of the clouds
And make myself and make myself
Like the most high
