Behind These Wires - FAMM

Behind These Wires

Here I sit all alone, just trying to clear my mind…, I’m Hashing through old memories, of a life I left behind…, There’s nowhere I can run to, no there’s nowhere far that I can go…, life behind these wires baby, oh they bring a man down low..

(  Chorus )

Its been such a long time in this…. place
paying the consequence for all of my… mistakes
I never wanted this for you and me…. Cant you see
Long letters and lonely nights, she struggles to make ins-meat…, a single mom taking care of the kids, she’s trying to keep shoes on their feet..

( Chorus )

And its been such a long time in this…. place
touching hands through the glass as tears roll down….your face
I never wanted this for you and me… girl cant you see

( Bridge )

And Oh cant you see, how much I love you girl I’m down on, my knees, your everything I’ll ever need..Girl cant you see..
Its been such a long time in this… Place
paying the consequence for all of my… mistakes
I never wanted this for you and me….girl cant you see… cant you see..
Here I set all alone just trying to clear my mind…
K Here I sit all alone, just trying to clear my mind…, I’m Hashing through old memories, of a life I left behind…, There’s nowhere I can run to, no there’s nowhere far that I can go…, life behind these wires baby, oh they bring a man down low..

(  Chorus )

Its been such a long time in this…. place
paying the consequence for all of my… mistakes
I never wanted this for you and me…. Cant you see
Long letters and lonely nights, she struggles to make ins-meat…, a single mom taking care of the kids, she’s trying to keep shoes on their feet..

( Chorus )

And its been such a long time in this…. place
touching hands through the glass as tears roll down….your face
I never wanted this for you and me… girl cant you see

( Bridge )

And Oh cant you see, how much I love you girl I’m down on, my knees, your everything I’ll ever need..Girl cant you see..
Its been such a long time in this… Place
paying the consequence for all of my… mistakes
I never wanted this for you and me….girl cant you see… cant you see..
