LOCKDOWN

[Verse 1: K.Flay]

Lock him up and throw away the key

Let him fill with hopelessness and misery

Wasting all his days away, never sees the light of day

Except for a tiny little hole where the sun peeks through

Well he was doomed from the start, falsely accused

Questioned for weeks, verbal abuse

And we condone that crime

Coerced to confess, strip-searched and undressed

Out on the streets, yes, now there is one less

Let him do the time

[Chorus: K.Flay]

But how do you expect that man

To live his life when the bars are gone?

Make him weak, then break him to pieces

Faith is all gone, stopped praying to Jesus

When will this war be won?

[Verse 2: Zumbi]

Yeah, I see there's nothing left here but the skin and the bone

And a poem that I wrote for the strangers alone

Just a skin and the bone, that's all that is left here

The spirit was once near, now countdown to next year

Let him cool off, get clear

In a zone without eyes, without no ears

It's like the bottom of the sea floor

Pressure getting dense in a sense like seesaw

Like a before, after

The capture, soulless master without laughter

Ain't no smiles and fun

When the sun goes down, there's nowhere to run

[Chorus]

But how do you expect that man

To live his life when the bars are gone?

Make him weak, then break him to pieces

Faith is all gone, stopped praying to Jesus

When will this war be won?
