Lyrics

[Intro]
Na-na-na-na, oh-oh
Na-na-na-na, oh-oh
Na-na-na-na, oh-oh
[Verse 1]
When the leader of the bad guys sang
Somethin' soft and soaked in pain
I heard the echo from his secret hideaway
He must've forgot to close his door
As he cranked out those dismal chords
And his four walls declared him insane
[PreChorus]
I found my way, right time, wrong place as I pled my case
[Chorus]
You're the judge, oh no
Set me free-ee
You're the judge, oh no
Set me free-ee
I know my soul's freezin'
Hell's hot for good reason
So please
Take me
[Refrain]
Na-na-na-na, oh-oh
Na-na-na-na, oh-oh
Na-na-na-na, oh-oh
[Verse 2]
Three lights are lit but the fourth one's out
I can tell 'cause it's a bit darker than the last night's bout
I forgot about the drought of light bulbs in this house
So I head out down a route I think is headin' south
But I'm not good with directions and I hide behind my mouth
I'm a pro at imperfections and I'm best friends with my doubt
And now that my mind's out and now I hear it clear and loud
I'm thinkin', wow, I probably shoulda stayed inside my house
[PreChorus]
I found my way, right time, wrong place as I pled my case
[Chorus]
You're the judge, oh no
Set me free-ee
You're the judge, oh no
Set me free-ee
I know my soul's freezin'
Hell's hot for good reason
So please
[Bridge]
I don't know if this song
Is a surrender or a revel
I don't know if this one
Is about me or the devil
I don't know if this song
Is a surrender or a revel
I don't know if this one
Is about me or the devil
[Chorus]
You're the judge, oh no
Set me free, oh no
You're the judge, oh no
Set me free, oh no
I know my soul's freezin'
Hell's hot for good reason
So please
[Refrain]
Na-na-na-na, oh-oh
Na-na-na-na, oh-oh
Na-na-na-na, oh-oh
Na-na-na-na, oh-oh
[Chorus]
You're the judge, oh no
Set me free-ee
You're the judge, oh no
Set me free-ee
You're the judge, oh no
Set me free-ee
You're the judge, oh no
Set me free-ee
Oh, oh
