lyrics

Denied the right to life life free
The things I've seen you wouldn't believe
Sights meant for fantasy
Unspoken horrors would make you weak in the knees

My life encaged, enraged, deranged
Cast to the fires, damned to eternal flames

Sentenced to burn
Sentenced to die
Sentenced to life inside a cage where I can't hide

There's nothing left to believe in
A sad sick excuse for a life
Given up the fight for freedom
Our days spent under the hunting knife

Live to grow
Born to die
You couldn't fathom what this life is like

The day I was born, my execution was already earned
Deemed unworthy of life, cast to the flames, sentenced to burn

Sentenced to die
Sentenced to life inside a cell in my own mind

Stuck in a cage
Withered away
Where I'll stay
Enslaved by the human race
