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's 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 lies, the lies, lies, lies   Are trapped behind the bars      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'm waiting, my hands are wrapped around the bars   I'm burning, my soul is pushed against the bars   The bars, the lies, the lies, lies, lies   They're trapped behind my eyes
