Another Wasted Life
Another day another youth
Another story-mangled truth
The commentary uncouth and full of cloudy grease
Does it matter what the crime
If indeed there was this time
He’s given solitary time
An institutional caprice
It’s a torture of the soul
The narrow confines of control
Thrown down the stinking hole with no hope of release
It’s just another wasted life
It’s just another wasted life
It’s just another wasted life
It’s just another wasted life
Things then finally understood
He’s returned but damaged goods
He fought hard as he could until he saw the last release
Another day another murder
A punishment taken further
A surrender without murmur God trust his soul is at peace
It’s just another wasted life
It’s just another wasted life
It’s just another wasted life
It’s just another wasted life
