Confined inside a cell block the ties that hold my people die They look to me for a key – a key I cast aside
To think I once united they were rope and I was the knot Now the group’s a noose around me and the door to truth is locked
No hope, no revival fear chains me pride binds my fate
Locked up in my own survival mind racing heartbeat fading away
Surrounded by iron gates links of lies seal our decline Even if we try to break free we’d still be slaves
No hope, no revival fear chains us pride binds our fate
Locked up in our own survival minds racing heartbeats fading away minds racing heartbeats fading away
Is there any way out? Is there a place where we can live again or does it just end? Locked in our lies, how can we survive?
No hope, no revival fear chains us pride binds our fate
Locked up in our own survival minds racing heartbeats fading away (locked in lies) minds racing heartbeats fading away
(locked in lies) minds racing heartbeats fading away

How can you see with the fragments of sleep in your eye? Why won’t you sweep them under the place where you lie? You snag your feet when you drag through your day and absent-mindedly sleepwalk the night
How can you think if you won’t even wake? You snag your feet when you drag through your day and absent-mindedly sleepwalk the night
Dreams lay in front of you but all you did was jumble them So enjoy the pieces as you fumble through your rest
You’ll never see with the fragments of sleep in your eye
Dreams lay in front of you but all you did was jumble them So enjoy the pieces as you fumble through your rest
