Room Lyrics - Modern Artillery - The Living End

In a room you can build a home 

Plant the seed and life begins to grow 

When it's outgrown life inside 

How will it live? 

And will it survive? 

On it's own outside 

I wonder if the world is just the same 

And does the life that I knew still remain 

Journey to the life outside 

Return to those I left behind 

'Cause I'm ready to go now 

Yes I'm ready to go now 

I want to get back to the city 

Get on with my life 

Cause I've done my time 

And I'm ready to go now 

So now it's time to leave the room 

And not for one minute too soon 

If you spent 16 years 

Then you'd almost understand 

Time waits for no man to return 

A whole new set of rules to learn 

It had been 16 years 

Since they put me in the cell 

We will never leave 

We ain't ever gonna leave the room 

We could be here for life 

We will never leave the room 

And as it all gets rearranged 

You find that everything has changed 

And there's no place for you 

In this foreign world 

You always believed 

One day you'd be free 

And never return so soon 

If I lent my arms to you 

Would you hold me 

And embrace me 

Or replace me
