Lyrics


Conned in a paper cage

Polished like it was silver

Red at my own regret for not

Shaking the bars



Thrown down like a fallen king

Overdue for a beating

Warmed like a frozen hand

Painful, but a cure.



Bound to survive if I manage to

Crawl back to my cell

Crawl inside my cell

How can you fear a man halfway dead and beaten?

The half I fear?s still breathing



Gone like an accident

Take it back...not an option

On the market as a failed saint

Who no longer works for free



Done planning my escape

Reconnaissance leads to action

The guard is standing at the gate

So I?m calling it off



Bound to survive if I manage to

Crawl back to my cell

Crawl inside my cell

How can you fear a man halfway dead and beaten?

The half I fear?s still breathing
