Lyrics
"Bustin Out"
Sean McMann
Forever...that's how long it's taken
For my heart to awaken...and realize
The only thing that seperates a dream from reality
Is hidden, somwhere deep down inside
But if these prison walls went up with my own hands...
If I was the architect...
It's time to change my plans
Chorus
I'm bustin out!
Dismanteling the cage...
Breaking up the morter...
Diluting the rage
Because life is not life
When it's tempered by fear
And for the first time...
It seems so clear
The fickle hand of fate...
Slapped my bare bottom
Left a welt the size of an ocean
And though I've tried before to win the race of life
Something always interferes, with my forward motion
And though the minutes they tick by...
Haven't lost the will to live...
Haven't lost the urge to fly
Repeat Chorus
I'm bustin out!
Dismanteling the cage...
Breaking up the morter...
Diluting the rage
Because life is not life
When it's tempered by fear
And for the first time...
It seems so clear
Guitar Solo
Repeat Chorus
I'm bustin out!
Dismanteling the cage...
Breaking up the morter...
Diluting the rage
Because life is not life
When it's tempered by fear
And for the first time...
It seems so clear...
So clear
So clear
