Eye for None - Boarded-Up Windows Lyrics

You left the penitentiary and swear to never go back
But a system built on flaws will leave open cracks
You were only a child when you began this descent
As it swallows you in we'll begin to forget

I don't know why you can here with all these boarded-up windows
These walls they're unforgiving, stuck with your boarded-up windows

Following hard from when you were seventeen
You didn't mean to take, you just needed a release
Just another mouth, just one more to feed
The system takes you in when there's nowhere else to be

I don't know why you came here with all these boarded-up windows
These walls they're unforgiving, stuck with your boarded-up windows

As these levels rise and you feel boarded in
Never a better time to crack and rescind
But out on the streets is hardly living, day to day
And your fire inside only helps you rot away

I don't now why you came here with all these boarded-up windows
These walls they're stiff and tightening from the rejects left here

Just a working slob with nothing to spare
We're all set up when we're born into here
Pestilence and waste, the city we all know
Roaming hate to hate 'cause we don't have a home

I don't know why you came here with all these boarded-up windows
These walls they're unforgiving, stuck with your boarded-up windows

I don't know why you came here with all these boarded-up windows
These walls they're stiff and tightening from the rejects left here
Don't know why you're sent here; another nameless scapegoat
This world is cruel and narrow inside your boarded-up windows
