You don’t know your jailer Like you, he’s never been free He looks just like you, doesn’t he? He’s got no sense of his own reward Who needs freedom anyway? When you’ve got your golden cage What I call isolation You might call it pa**ion play How long have you been here? You really can’t say How long will you stay? Who cares anyway? It’s a rescue day What’s the use in fighting
Battles that you can’t lose You’re here by an invitation Another’s mad refuse Escape is a temptation But it’s much too tough to choose That’s why I’m standing out here That’s why I’m waiting out here It’s a rescue day Another rescue day You build walls to keep me out Or maybe to keep you in Which ever jail you choose right now Your house is not your friend
