Good Riddance Static Lyrics

Static lyrics
Like a weathered statue
I will wait for you
like the darkness fading
waiting to see it through
like an ardent cry
wakes me from the silence of my sleep
like a distant bell
like a man who fights the system
fights to keep

if you have to ask the price you can't afford it
there's nothing free in this world
[ From : http://www.elyrics.net/read/g/good-riddance-lyrics/static-lyrics.html ]
there's nothing free in this life

like a super hero
I'll try to save the world
with an anesthetic
to life a thousand fingers
like a man accused
I'll weigh the consequence
like a man afraid
of the madness just beyond the picket fence
