[Verse 1]
A shadow in these walls
Yeah that is all I am
A prison deep under fortress crowns
Where they spill the blood of man
[Refrain]
A second chance at life is all I've dreamed of
For now inside these walls I stay
[Chorus]
Sitting far away, I watch the blackness grow
(Never mind what is underneath the stone
It's a life that we're living all alone)
Step out in the rain and feel the deep sorrow
Light is calling from the narrow road
[Verse 2]
Sometimes kindness speaks in tongues with one of them
I can see love in her eyes
And if I fall, d**h will never stain one of his hands
I find safety in these lies
[Refrain] + [Chorus]
[Bridge]
The chains are part of me
Stale air is all I breathe down here
I need to find a way
I've gotta find my way far from here
Another chance at life is fading slowly
Upon the cross I burn
[Chorus] x2
