Text: The Briggs. Dungeon Walls.
Pacing back and forth
The only comfort is the sound
Of the clanking of the shackles
As each footstep hits the ground
Made it through each lonely day
Only with the dream
Deep inside my heart
I know that someday I'd be free
Stuck inside these walls
Drenched in misery
I only have myself to be
My own worst enemy
Imprisoned in my thoughts
Insanity is nigh
Rotting like a foul corpse
And running out of time
Turn the key, unlock the gate
I'm going home, I'm going home
Curse this place and every blessed stone
Hooray! Hooray!
Out of the dungeon walls
Hooray! Hooray!
Never thought I'd see the light of day
Hooray! Hooray!
Out of the dungeon walls
See the city lights
I can smell the salty breeze
And the wind as it call
I'm out of the dungeon walls
I fell to my knees
As I kissed the sweet night
Said goodbye as it vanished
Into the morning light
Shed a tear for every line
I marked upon that wall
Everyday alive but
Without living at all
Freedom has its price
A price that I will pay
There's no fortune in this world
Worth losing one more day
I know I'll go to Heaven
I've already been to Hell
It's deep inside those dungeon walls
The place that I did dwell
Turn the key, unlock the gate
I'm going home, I'm going home
Curse this place and every blessed stone
Hooray! Hooray!
Out of the dungeon walls
Hooray! Hooray!
Never thought I'd see the light of day
Hooray! Hooray!
Out of the dungeon walls
See the city lights
I can smell the salty breeze
And the wind as it call
I'm out of the dungeon walls
Turn the key, unlock the gate
I'm going home, I'm going home
Curse this place and every blessed stone
Hooray! Hooray!
Out of the dungeon walls
Hooray! Hooray!
Never thought I'd see the light of day
Hooray! Hooray!
Out of the dungeon walls
See the city lights
I can smell the salty breeze
And the wind as it call
I'm out of the dungeon walls
I'm out of the dungeon walls
The only comfort is the sound
Of the clanking of the shackles
As each footstep hits the ground
Made it through each lonely day
Only with the dream
Deep inside my heart
I know that someday I'd be free
Stuck inside these walls
