There was a girl I knew
|
She saw the prison inside
|
She cursed her keeper
|
And swore she'd get free
|
|
Every time I see
|
I got my hands wrapped around the bars
|
I want out right now
|
|
She led an angel's life
|
On angel's wings
|
Jumped out her apartment window
|
And hit the street below
|
|
Every time I see
|
I got my hands wrapped around the bars
|
I can't shut off my mind
|
And now I've waited, my hands are wrapped around the bars
|
I'm burning, my soul is pushed against the bars
|
The bars, the lies, the lies, lies, lies
|
Are trapped behind the bars
|
|
My mind hates my body
|
My body hates my soul
|
I close my eyes and fight
|
Inside my own black hole
|
|
Every time I see
|
I got my hands wrapped around the bars
|
I want out right now!
|
|
I've lived my life
|
I'm doing my time
|
I realize life's lie
|
|
Every time I see
|
I got my hands wrapped around the bars
|
I can't shut off my mind
|
And now I'm waiting, my hands are wrapped around the bars
|
I'm burning, my soul is pushed against the bars
|
The bars, the lies, the lies, lies, lies
|
They're trapped behind my eyes
|
