Slightly bruised and a little bit used
I never thought they'd be so amused
Brothers bond broken by the bailiff
For the first timePrison proves, gotta pay my dues
Now I know I'll never be with youIf I, if I, if I die inside
Would anyone realize?
(No, God help me!)If I, if I, if I die inside
Would anyone realize? (No)
I lived a lie
(Is anyone gonna realize)
Change in sights
I ain't gonna sleep tonight
This is no way for a man to live his life
Paranoid on the prisonyard pavement
For the first timeSo I served time for my addiction
I pay the price for my affliction
A judge took my life with his conviction
For the last timeLights out, lockdown
Don't make a sound
Lights out, lockdownIf I, if I, if I die inside
Would anyone realize?
(anyone realize?)If I, if I, if I deny that crime
Would I, would I serve the time?
I live a lie.
Someone speak, I'm a drumset in my head
Something, a different beat
Beat myself to the sound of the walking dead
Rinse and repeat
Someone's beat on the drumset in my head
In my head, headIf I, if I, if I dieIf I, if I, if I die inside
Would anyone realize?
(Would anyone realize?)If I, if I, if I deny the crime
Would I, would I serve the time?
I live a lie.
