12. Concrete Walls "Live"

[Intro][Live][Spoken word] [Crowd cheering] "This next one is for everyone who's ever felt stuck... in a place they never chose... surrounded by walls they never built!" [Crowd cheers loudly] "Make some noise!" [Band kicks in] - Concrete walls are arching over me Every day's the same damn grind Here within this fading grayness Sweaty nights, suffocating days I'm searching for a single spark A glimmer in the endless boredom I hear that whisper in my head Words unspoken, words unsaid, forgotten Concrete walls are rising all around me This godforsaken, forgotten town It won't let go, won't let me escape Just a shadow, just a faceless being Concrete walls so cold and unforgiving Leaving scars upon my soul Smiles without meaning, eyes without joy We're living in a herd of lies They speak of progress, they speak of change It feels like a prison built on lies The same old song with a different tune Beneath this pale and sickly haze Is there a sky beyond this gray? Will the light ever find its way here? Or just more brick, more steel, more gray It all washes over me like acid rain Tell me, what is the price When everything we love is disappearing? Concrete walls surrounding me This godforsaken, forgotten town It won't let go, won't let me... It just won't fucking let go.
