Songs: Escape

by DJ

I look around my room from time to time,
There's a free world out there; I want to be mine.

I look around all I can see,
Is four brick walls surrounding me.

They seem to come closer; long time I look,
Do I really deserve this; am I really a crook.

I look around all I can see,
Is four brick walls surrounding me.

So I pound on the doors and scream and shout,
There's a free world out there; I want to get out.

I look around all I can see,
Is four brick walls surrounding me.

I'm not a caged animal for people to see.
Why won't they let me go and just be free.

One day I'll wake to a great sound,
The brick walls will be crumbling down,
