Nation's on red alert, while no one blinks an eye
Snake oil and sedatives to help ignore the signs
Marched straight into these cages, made to our design
From prey to predator, now poised and set to strike
These prison doors won't hold forever
We'll slowly count it down, or find a new way out
Cause we're so far gone
From where we started
Falling apart and
Now we're broke and beaten down
They'll be gone, gone, gone
Before we know it
This storm is over
But the battle's just begun...just begun
Kindling and kerosene, just waiting for a spark
Lost sight of who we are, adjusted to the dark
These prison doors won't hold forever
We'll slowly count it down, or find a new way out
Cause we're so far gone
From where we started
Falling apart and
Now we're broke and beaten down
They'll be gone, gone, gone
Before we know it
This storm is over
But the battle's just begun...just begun
These prison doors won't hold forever
We'll slowly count the days, or plan for our escape
Cause we're so far gone
From where we started
Falling apart and
Now we're broke and beaten down
They'll be gone, gone, gone
Before we know it
This storm is over
But the battle's just begun...just begun
Gone, gone, gone
Gone, gone, gone
We'll slowly count the days
Or plan our own escape
This storm is done
But the battle's just begun...just begun
