Donrsquot keep me at the doorFirst of all

what wersquoll sayis between you and me

Come on now you know meLife soothes the craven

so it is difficult to express yourselfin difficult times Locked myself

in my mold from now onand I donrsquot ask to get out

Because Irsquom afraid of the world outsideI got used to the bars

surrounding meAround school around work

around the gardenLetrsquos focus on the facts

I see misery in the streetsand wonder

how the privileged onescan sing while hanging

their laundry on the rope
