Slightly bruised and a little bit used
|
I never thought they'd be so amused
|
Brother's bond broken by the bailiff
|
For the first time
|
|
Prison blues, gotta pay my dues
|
Now I know I'll never be refused
|
|
If I, If I, If I die inside
|
Would anyone realize?
|
If I, If I, If I die inside
|
Would anyone realize?
|
I lived a lie
|
|
Chains and stripes
|
I ain't gonna sleep tonight
|
This is no way for a man to live his life
|
Paranoid on the prison-yard pavement
|
For the first time
|
|
So I serve time for my addiction
|
I pay the price for my affliction
|
The judge took my life with his conviction
|
For the last time
|
|
Lights out, lock down, don't make a sound
|
Lights out, lock down
|
|
If I, If I, If I die inside
|
Would anyone realize? (Would anyone realize?)
|
If I, If I, If I deny the crime
|
Would I, would I, serve the time?
|
I lived a lie
|
|
Someone's behind the drum set in my head
|
Thumping a different beat myself to the sound of the walking dead
|
Rinse and repeat
|
Someone's behind the drum set in my head, in my head, head
|
|
If I, If I, If I die
|
(yeah)
|
If I, If I, If I die inside
|
Would anyone realize? (Would anyone realize?)
|
If I, If I, If I deny the crime
|
Would I, would I, serve the time? (Serve the time)
|
I lived a lie
