Joe LaPorta - This Place Is a Prison lyrics

[Verse 1] This place is a prison And these people aren't your friends Inhaling thrills through $20 bills And the tumblers are drained and then flooded again And again [Verse 2] There's guards at the on ramps Armed to the teeth And you may case the grounds from the cascades to Puget Sound But you are not permitted to leave [Chorus] I know there's a big world out there like the one that I saw on the screen In my living room late last night, it was almost too bright to see And I know that it's not a party if it happens every night Pretending there's glamour and candelabra When you're drinking by candlelight [Bridge x2] What does it take to get a drink in this place? What does it take, how long must I wait? ...How long must I wait?
