| Slightly bruised and a little bit used
|
| I never thought they’d be so amused
|
| Brother’s bond broken by the bailiff
|
| For the first time
|
| Prison blues, gotta pay my dues
|
| Now I know I’ll never be refused
|
| If I, if I, if I die inside
|
| Would anyone realize?
|
| If I, if I deny the crime
|
| Would I, would I serve the time?
|
| I lived a lie
|
| Chains and stripes
|
| I ain’t gonna sleep tonight
|
| This is no way for a man to live his life
|
| Paranoid on the prison yard pavement
|
| For the first time
|
| So I serve time for my addiction
|
| I pay the price for my affliction
|
| The judge took my life with his conviction
|
| For the last time
|
| Lights out, lock down, don’t make a sound
|
| Lights out, lock down
|
| Someone’s behind the drum set in my head
|
| Thumpin' a different beat myself to the sound of the walking dead
|
| Rinse 'n' repeat
|
| Someone’s behind the drum set in my head, in my head, head |
