You're standing in a cell, looking through the bars
Looking at the open fields, so near and yet so far
Wondering about your friends out there, and what they're doing now
And wishing you could be with them today
-
(chorus)
Behind the bars, behind the bars
Behind the bars, because you stood for you race
-
They'll try and break your spirit, they'll try to grind you down
If you stand up for your country they don't want you around
You wonder what you're doing here, and is it all worthwhile
They'll never crush the pride that's in your heart
-
They'll try and make you angry, they'll make new rules for you
Because you are what they fear, for your ideals stay true
Your faith it will sustain you, as you stand firm and proud
You'll never let them tear your country down
Looking at the open fields, so near and yet so far
Wondering about your friends out there, and what they're doing now
And wishing you could be with them today
-
(chorus)
Behind the bars, behind the bars
Behind the bars, because you stood for you race
-
They'll try and break your spirit, they'll try to grind you down
If you stand up for your country they don't want you around
You wonder what you're doing here, and is it all worthwhile
They'll never crush the pride that's in your heart
-
They'll try and make you angry, they'll make new rules for you
Because you are what they fear, for your ideals stay true
Your faith it will sustain you, as you stand firm and proud
You'll never let them tear your country down
