Chords with lyrics

C majorC C minorCm G+G  A augmentedA

    C majorC         C minorCm
We're born in a prision, raised in a prision
 C majorC            C7C7
Send to a prision called school,
  FF          F minorFm
We cry in a prision, We love in a prision,
  C majorC            D MajorD
We dream in a prision, like fools.
 E MajorE               C# minorC#m
Wood becomes a flute when it's loved,
A augmentedA              BB
reach for yourself and your battered mates.
E MajorE                 C# minorC#m
Mirror becomes a razor when it's broken,
A augmentedA                BB
Look in the mirror and see your shattered fate.

C majorC  C minorCm  G+G  A augmentedA

We live with no reason, kicked round for no reason,
Thrown out without reason like tools.
Work in a prison and hate in a prison
And die in a prison as a rule.
Wood becomes a flute when it's loved,
reach for yourself and your battered mates.
Mirror becomes a razor when it's broken,
Look in the mirror and see your shattered fate.

We live in a prison among judges and wardens
And wait for no reason or use
We laugh in a prision, go through all four seasons
And die with no vision or truth
Wood becomes a flute when it's loved,
reach for yourself and your battered mates.
Mirror becomes a razor when it's broken,
Look in the mirror and see your shattered fate.
