Born In A Prison

unknown

We're born in a prison, raised in a prison,
Sent to a prison called school.
We cry in a prison, we love in a prison,
We dream in a prison like fools.

Wood becomes a flute when it's loved,
Reach for yourself & your battered mates.
Mirror becomes a razor when it's broken,
Look in the mirror & see your shattered fate.

We live with no reason, kicked 'round for no reason,
Thrown out without reason like tools.
We work in a prison & hate in a prison,
And die in a prison as a rule.

Wood becomes a flute when it's loved,
Reach for yourself & your battered mates.
Mirror becomes a razor when it's broken,
Look in the mirror & see your shattered fate.

We live in a prison 'mong judges & wardens
And wait for no reason for you.
We laugh in a prison, go through all four seasons,
And die with no vision of truth.

Wood becomes a flute when it's loved,
Reach for yourself & your battered mates.
Mirror becomes a razor when it's broken,
Look in the mirror & see your shattered fate.

Born in a prison!
(born in a prison!)
(born in a prison!)
(born in a prison!)

Born in a prison!
(born in a prison!)
(born in a prison!)

Born in a prison!
Born in a prison!
Born in a prison!

(born in a prison!)
(born in a prison!)

Born in a prison!
