Here Lies Alcatraz
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He took away his freedom
Because he was frustrated
Therefore condemned you
Violence
Is your action
Is your reaction
Mentally got you killed
You do not know what is more nor breathe
Neither more what living
Happy is he?
In afflict you
An rattlesnake in your hands
Always done to trounce you
Fire stones to stone thee
As if you were the only sinner
But one day
The fear of him will fortify you
The wrath of him will aggrandize thee
Shouts and threats one day
Will turn against their oppressor
But luckily one day you will see...
He is made of flesh and bone
And the leash of tyranny around his neck
Will not have any effect
You imagined and dreamed
That one day you would be free
Your nightmare finally ended
These railings and walls
You destroyed all
Can not never more arrest you
Icarus flew...
But the dream of him did not last
Plummeted the high
Died...
With their most secret desires and fears
But you fell and got up
You did not flinch
You was freed and won
Fought and survived
