A Bigger Cage Is Still A Prison - Cistem Failure
Tuning: Dm, E A D G B E
[Intro]
[Verse]
From the windo
w I see the
mountains
They roll like
tidal waves a
cross the hori
zon
The rain casca
des down, like
lava it consu
mes
Everything on
its journey to
the bottom
From the windo
w I hear the
aching groani
ng wind
It forces its
way through th
e cracks onto
my skin
I long to clim
b out, to be s
wept up in its
wrath
But I can't br
eak through th
e bars that ke
ep me in
[Chorus]
There's nothin
g I want more
then to sleep
under a night
sky
Hear the anima
ls as they go
about their li
ves
Feel a fire wa
rm my body, fe
el the mud und
er my toes
But tonight th
is cell keeps
me enclosed
[Verse]
The trees form
a secret gree
n embrace
Their arms bec
koning to swal
low me whole
I want to clim
b over these r
ooftops and
over these fe
nces
And escape to
the places non
e of these gua
rds would go
[Chorus]
There's nothin
g I want more
then to sleep
under a night
sky
Hear the anima
ls as they go
about their li
ves
Feel a fire wa
rm my body, fe
el the mud und
er my toes
But tonight th
is cell keeps
me enclosed
[Verse]
Sitting here I
prepare mysel
f for the futu
re
When instead o
f one month I
could be here
for years
Would I lose
hope, would
I take my lif
e
Or would we fi
nd a way to br
eak ourselves
out of here?
[Chorus]
There's nothin
g I want more
then to sleep
under a night
sky
Hear the anima
ls as they go
about their li
ves
Feel a fire wa
rm my body, fe
el the mud und
er my toes
But tonight th
is cell keeps
me enclosed
[Bridge]
For if we don'
t have our fre
edom if we are
captured by t
heir iron hand
s
Then the visio
n for fire it
burns so much
more bright
There's no jus
tice in this s
ystem, a bigge
r cage is stil
l a prison
Well I hope th
at somewhere s
omeone breaks
free tonight
[Outro]
