[hometext] => Not the most uplifting work I ever wrote
[bodytext] => We’re just rodents in a wheel The faster we run, the worse we feel And it never gets us anywhere So we keep gnawing at the cage While our mouths fill up with pain A small price to pay to escape I’ve gotta get out Gotta get away But why break away When it’s so easy to stay And live in a world Where you can rot and decay We’re all fed through the bars Our bodies wasted and scared As death creeps up slowly Kept alive to entertain No reason left to be sane In a world twisted by a game I’ve gotta get out Gotta get away But why break away When it’s so easy to stay And live in the world Everyone wishes to remain Forever unchanging, never contemplating That their may be another tomorrow Not filled with such sorrow And not sold away for a cage I’m on my way I’m escaping today [comments] => 1 [counter] => 148 [topic] => 34 [informant] => xsitm [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 8 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SongLyrics )
