Jackson Cage

歌詞

Springsteen Driving home she grabs something to eat Turns a corner and drives down her street Into a row of houses she melts away Like the scenery in another man's play. To a house where the blinds are closed To keep from seeing things she don't wanna know She pulls the blinds, she looks out on the street The cool of the night takes the edge off the heat. In the Jackson Cage Down in the Jackson Cage You can try with all your might But you're reminded every night That you've been judged and handed life Down in the Jackson Cage. Every day ends in wasted motion Crossed swords on the killing floor To settle back is to settle without knowing The hard edge that you're settling for. 'Cause there's always just one more day And it always will be that way Girl, you've been down here so long I could tell by the way that you move you belong .. To the Jackson Cage Down in the Jackson Cage And it don't matter just what you say Are you tough enough to play the game they play? Will you just do your time and fade away Down in the Jackson Cage ? Down in the Jackson Cage. It's nights when I dream of a better world But I wake up so downhearted, girl I see you feeling so tired and confused I wonder what it's worth to me or you. Just waiting to see some sun Never knowing if that day will come Left alone standing out on the street Till you become the hand that turns the key .. To the Jackson Cage Down in the Jackson Cage Well, darling, can you understand The way that they will turn a man Into a stranger to waste away Down in the Jackson Cage ?
