"The Bars" lyrics
"The Bars"
(originally by Black Flag)
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 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 lie
The lie
The lie
The lie
Lie
The jail
Behind my eyes!
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've waited
My hands
Are wrapped around
The bars
I'm burning
My soul
Is pushed against
The bars
The bars
The lie
The lie
The lie
Lie
The lie
The prison
Behind my eyes!
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 lie
The lie
The lie
The lie
The lie
The prison
Behind my eyes!
