Текст песни Grey - PushFire

I couldn't fly away
With this city tied around my sorry neck
Where would I find shame
Now that I've got all this time on my hands?
I've dreamnt of holes
In the ceiling when I'm still awake
Because we all have had
We all have had our share of broken wings

Would you believe me if I said I told the truth?
Would you condemn me for the wrongs I did not do?
You have been given a chance to save an innocent life

No one's holding my hand, yeah
I'm as good as dead (I'm as good as dead)
Every dream is my getaway
(But you're not ready yet, so I'll just keep my head down)
From the hands that hold me, hands that hold me down

And I never asked for this place
Never asked for this cell
Never asked for these chains
All I want is a reason to breathe
And a chance to feel the breeze on my skin

Could you grant me this one wish?
Because I'm not your man
No, I am not your man

I'm not your man, I'm not your man
I won't forget, you won't forget
I'm not your man

Yeah, I'm as good as dead (I'm as good as dead)
Every dream is my getaway
(But you're not ready yet, so I'll just keep my head down)
From the hands that hold me, hands that hold me down

Will I become the man they told you I was?
On paper cuts from paperwork they solemnly swore on
The cries and echoes that curse my heavy head are just
Mud to fill the cracks on the streets of my cell block
A cut in the wall, another riot incentive
Another part of me that I've watched get hanged with consequences
I can feel the color leaving my face through my eyes
Who are they creating? Who's the real murderer now?

A long steady gaze, might bring these walls down in a blaze
While all the world gladly smears my judgment
Like they never will again
(Make up a story and bury the lies
Keep a straight face as he's torn from his life
Look him in the eyes, for the last time)

You thought you had the right to hunt me down
You thought you had the right to hunt me down

You're not the warden
