Lyrics

We dream of ways to break these
Iron bars
We dream of black nights without
Moon or stars
We dream of tunnels and of
Sleeping guards
We dream of blackouts in the
Prison yard

Heartbroken we found
A gleam of hope
Harken to the sound
A whistle blows
Heaven sent reply
However small
Evidence of life
Beyond these walls
Born and bred
In this machine
Wardens dread
To see us dream
We hold tight
To legends of
Real life;
The way it was before

We dream of jailers throwing
Down their arms
We dream of open gates and
No alarms

We dream of ways to break these
Iron bars
We dream of black nights without
Moon or stars

We dream of ways to break these
Iron bars
We dream of black nights without
Moon or stars

We dream of ways to break these
Iron bars
We dream of black nights without
Moon or stars

Heartbroken we found
A gleam of hope
Harken to the sound
A whistle blows
Heaven sent reply
However small
Evidence of life
Beyond these walls
Born and bred
In this machine
Wardens dread
To see us dream
We hold tight
To legends of
Real life;
The way it was before

Look to the day
The earth will shake
These weathered walls
Will fall away
Look to the day
The earth will shake
These weathered walls
Will fall away
Look to the day
The earth will shake
These weathered walls
Will fall away
Look to the day
The earth will shake
These weathered walls
Will fall away...
