Prisons Without Walls Lyrics

Whip cracks and broken backs

I've slaved your day-to-day

With chains of promises

You've used to make me stay

Locked in with open doors

I've hid for far too long

I won't stand in your blackened pits when I don't owe my soul

Our dues, they rise above

(In prisons without walls)

To leave is cause enough

(To lock away your tongue)

I can't take any more

(I know the only way out)

It's too much to ask for

The time is drawing near

The end of life has come

Destroyed the greatness of my soul

I can't help but succumb

Understand I can't leave without the things that make me me

I have to sacrifice my old life to be truly free

Our dues, they rise above

(In prisons without walls)

To leave is cause enough

(To lock away your tongue)

I can't take any more

(I know the only way out)

It's too much to ask

I can leave at any time

(In prisons without walls)

Unshackled, it's so sublime

(In time all tyrants will fall)

I'm tired of living this lie

(It's time to end this facade)

All I've gotta do is say goodbye

Whip cracks

Broken backs

Won't stop me now

The time

Drawing near

The only way

Is

To

DIE

The only way out is to

I don't care how and I don't care why

But I will never comply

I am finally free to live my own life

I found my way out

Without strife
