ESCAPE FROM ALCATRAZ
Lyrics by Bo Parker
(Male Rock)
[Verse 1]
Staring at my window pane
Watching as it changes to steel bars
I’m trapped alone in my own world
Wondering how I got this far
Is this the life that I must lead
A life in a cell of misery
Pleading with the warden in the mirror
As I stand in this room of mystery
[Chorus]
I gotta get away
I gotta escape
I gotta leave this place of solitude
I’m a prisoner of my own mind
Steady running out of time…
Escape from Alcatraz---
Sketchin out the plans
On-the palm of my hands
Gotta make away to freedoms door
Trapped inside these walls
With nobody to call…
Escape from Alcatraz---
[Verse 2]
Is there another place for me
Somewhere I can say that it’s my own
A place where I know I’ll be free
And I don’t have to be alone
Dead man walking down the green mile
My hope must’ve blown away
With all of my dreams and ambitions
Never will they see the day
[Chorus]
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
This is crazy
I’m thinking maybe
That I gotta stay here
Cause the end... must be near…
[chorus]
