I'm trapped in the structure Of this, that, and the other thing. I'm bounded by lines And wrapped up in strings Your regulations Stake me to the earth I may never see Society's worth. I'm tired of laws That do not make sense I'm sick of these rules Of white picket fence Lives, lived Vicariously Through those who break rules, Through those who are free

Thoughts of a Law-Abiding Citizen
I'm trapped in the structure Of this, that, and the other thing. I'm bounded by lines And wrapped up in strings Your regulations Stake me to the earth I may never see Society's worth. I'm tired of laws That do not make sense I'm sick of these rules Of white picket fence Lives, lived Vicariously Through those who break rules, Through those who are free
