  80. And ended some body else's
  81. Every one's getting used to it
  82. Some even predicted it
  83. They don't even put us on the news no more
  84. They just become a statistic
  85. There's no hope for the future cuz everyone's pessimistic
  86. We were free for a while
  87. But now we're back in a cage
  88. Everyone's looking in
  89. Waiting to be amazed
  90. But as time moves on, fewer people flee
  91. All the people watching are beginning to leave
  92. Laughing as they walk cuz they know something we don't
  93. The cage guess what doesn't have a lock
  94. We can leave out when we want
  95. But we're too scared to look
  96. So we're trapped in a prison we made
  97. Waiting for a bail that won't get paid
  98. Damn
  99. These streets
