Life Denied Lyrics

Where was I when all my friends were bleeding
When my generation was out seething
Why do I never get to see outside?
All I see is blinding light in here
Trapped by windows and no one is near
I just feel the shade of condescension

So I try to reach out
For my spirit, my mind

Is there a way for you to understand?
I scream my lungs out but no one can hear
Show me a way to leave the quicksands of s***e and time
For my request for life was denied

I wanna play a part in reality
Know my creation has finality
I just want you to let me be
I need to feel disturbed and hurt and ill
Need to cry, to fear, to feel
I just need you to let me try

So I try to reach out
For my spirit, my mind

Is there a way for you to understand?
I scream my lungs out but no one can hear
Show me a way to leave the quicksands of s***e and time
For my request for life was denied
No! Save me
No! Come back for me
No! Release me
Will you return the life I gave?

Is there a way for you to understand?
I scream my lungs out but no one can hear
Show me a way to leave the quicksands of s***e and time
For my request for life was denied
