Freedom

a day,
a week,
whatever,
he's not there

i like,
i love,
who cares,
he's not there

i'm free
she's free
we're free
he's not here

raise a glass,
raise it high,
for life is good
when he's not here

time is good,
time is fine,
and so are you,
when he's not here

like mice,
like men,
doesn't matter,
because he's not there.
