Broken people
Break people
Starving
For a savior
Bill got locked up
Served 20 years
In that monument to human failure
He spent every day
Picking over how
He’s always failed
His dad left him
His school flunked him
And now he is jailed
**** of the earth
Or at least that how he feels
Caged like an animal
Buried alive
Behind doors of steel
Slowly he fades
He rots in his mind
And his family forgets him
Leaves him behind
His world grows darker
His youth starts to dim
Paying for his lack of mercy
To people
Who never showed mercy to him
