Do those places do any good? or do they turn fools into no hopers. I have never been there, but to have your freedom taken away I cannot understand those that return.
*Been all over the place* *searching for a way* *but every corner every route* *brings me back to this place called stay.* *Like I am never ever* *gonna find how to leave* *this is my life* *something is telling me to believe.* *Gave up on this town* *when I was shorter than you* *so I really know why its bad* *this sad old place is through,* *you see they dont like* *anyone who is different* *aint got time for those* *who look innocent.* *Being behind bars* *in a prison called Stay* *is the worst place* *to let your life run away.*
