I just want to bail Out of this life's jail The whole thing's been a living hell Plunge into the fire When I was just a child Things where so dire It only grew worse As the horror filled years I tried to transverse In all my life's sorrow I am immersed I want this life to be shortened For my view is so distorted My life is so unimportant Look at all the evil that on my life fell It can only be used as a cautionary Tale Of what happens to a life lived in hell

Life's Jail
I'm standing here on the side of the road, rain falling on my shoes Sorrow clouds my view Lord knows I've paid my dues Standing here in my misery knowing I'll never see the sunlight Seeing my life as just a blight Lord knows I'll never get it right I'm standing here on the side of the road, rain falling on my shoes I can't help but sing the blues Lord knows I am confused The demons reign within my memories Lying "it truly had to be" Lord knows my life's in jeopardy I'm standing here on the side of the road, rain falling on my shoes This agony remains in my soul infused I know the Lords amused
