I've been shaking the cage
Not an insect to the flame
No I won't let a light stand in my way
When there's blood on my hands
I hope you understand
That I won't be afraid to do it all again

You're telling me hope is a demon
Watch out, 'coz I won't believe it

You can lock me in a jailhouse
Throw away the keys and leave me bleeding
You can throw me to the fire
You can drown me in the rive
You won't stop me breathing
I'll serve my time let me live my life
You can lock me in a jailhouse
Throw away the key, but
You won't stop me leaving

I've been chasing a dream for so long now it seems
And I won't let it go 'till its mine to keep
There's a hole in my head
And I just won't let it rest
I swear that I'll fight for all that's mine

You're telling me hope is a demon
Watch out, 'coz I won't believe it

You can lock me in a jailhouse
Throw away the keys and leave me bleeding
You can throw me to the fire
You can drown me in the river
You won't stop me breathing
I'll serve my time let me live my life
You can lock me in a jailhouse
Throw away the key, but
You won't stop me leaving

No
So long
I'm gone
I'll be
Breaking out these chains

You can lock me in a jailhouse
Throw away the keys and leave me bleeding
You can throw me to the fire
You can drown me in the river

You can lock me in a jailhouse
Throw away the keys and leave me bleeding
You can throw me to the fire
You can drown me in the river
You won't stop me breathing
I'll serve my time let me live my life
You can lock me in a jailhouse
Throw away the key, but
You won't stop me leaving
