Sun comes up and life goes on its way But inside these walls, they are taking yours away And there in the dawn's calls Drifting out over it all You are lying in the shadows 'neath the window And you are leaving This long day is gonna test your heart again And though you are just a boy, they will hurt you as a man And they will come again to see If they can steal your dignity And leave you naked and bleeding in the doorway But you are leaving And what they just don't really see Is that you are already free And I know that you feel that your time it is nont long There is maybe just enough for this one last song So there in the cold night You close your eyes and you take to flight And you are hoping through the gaps in the steel And you are leaving And what they just don't really see Is that you are already free And what they just don't really see Is that you are already free
