I'm a prisoner
In my cage
Is where I do my time
A crime I know not of
Gawked from a distance
By the free and unconstrained
I want to self-liberate
From this HELL
In quicksand without a branch
I'm in the big house now
baby
Running the gammit for life
With no exodus in sight
Chorus
Cold concrete on my back
Shuddering cold breaths of air
They find escape
But I can't seem to do the same
Incarcerated vacation
My soul decays
I count the days
Until I'm free
Every day I spend
My waking hours
Living now on end
Feeding just enough
To shut me up
And to get me through the day
I'm in a broken state
Inside this cell
A stolen chance
I'm giving up my last stand
With no possible advance
My week at a glance
