lyrics

Father, won't you tell me what life is like?
What life is like outside these walls?
This concrete cage where we reside
Cannot contain your sorrow

Sorrow, it weighs heavy on your brow
How is that the case when you say that we're safe now?

I'll sneak out when you're asleep
Distract the guard that's at the hatch
Pop out my head to take a peek
And see what horrors I can catch

I know I'm ready for it all
If I don't know what we're fighting, then how can I feel safe at all?

Hordes of people line the streets
With tattered limbs and shattered minds
It's such a gruesome sight to see
I think one's calling out to me

Son, take your one chance to be free
And together we can make your living friends just like you and me

This feeling? What can it mean?
If only this horrid sight could somehow be unseen...
