Ever since I was a little boy,
Ever since I was a little boy,
I believed in something good
I did my best to go to Sunday school
I did my best to go to Sunday school
Every Sunday like I should
I remember the day when I had to leave
And I thought it was all a stage
I let fear and anger get a hold on me
I let fear and anger get a hold on me
And they locked me in their cage
And they locked me in their cage
And they locked me in their cage
And they locked me in their cage
creepin' through the windowpane
All I could do was wonder why
serve it but still it came
I swear I did not deserve
I swear I did not deserve
And now it holds me when I cry.
And now it holds me when I cry.
And now it holds me when I cry.
I swear I did not deserve it but
and now it holds me when I cry
And ever since I was a little boy
Ever since I was a little boy
Ever since I was a little boy,
I believed in something good
