Free Will and Testament (Live) - The Unthanks

Written by：Robert Wyatt/Mark Kramer

Given free will but within certain limitations

I cannot will myself to limitless mutations

I cannot know what I would be if I were not me

I can only guess me

So when I say that I know me how can I know that

What kind of spider understands arachnophobia

I have my senses and my sense of having senses

Do I guide them or they me

The weight of dust exceeds the weight of settled objects

What can it mean such gravity without a centre

What can it mean such gravity without a centre

Is there freedom to un be

Is there freedom from will to be

Sheer momentum makes us act this way or that way

We just invent or just a sume a motivation

I would disperse be disconnected is this possible

What are soldiers without a foe

Be in the air but not be air be in the no air

Be in the air but not be air be in the no air

Be on the loose neither compacted nor suspended

Neither born nor left to die

Had I been free I could have chosen not to be me

Demented forces push me madly round a treadmill

Demented forces push me madly round a treadmill

Let me off please I am so tired

Let me off please I am so very tired
