House Arrest

Lay your head down child
Let the years progress
You went against mother's wishes
Wound up on house arrest

There's no use lookin' back now
Being pulled from the wreck
You've always been an impulsive spirit
Now you pay a debt
You've always been an impulsive spirit

But one day
There will come a morning
When you wake up
From this bad dream
Grow your hair long
If you're wanting
To see something
That you can change
Grow your hair long
In mourning

Sometimes there's no reason
It's just unfortunate
That you must cry in a private panic
With no hope of revenge
Only in sleep you're weightless

Exhumed of all consequence
You contemplate blowin' all the lights out
To never rise again
You contemplate blowin' all the lights out

But one day
There will come a morning
When you wake up
From this bad dream
Grow your hair long
If you're wanting
To see something

That you can change
Grow your hair long
If you're wanting
To see something
That you can change
Grow your hair long
In mourning

Lay your head down child
Let the years progress
You went against mother's wishes
Wound up on house arrest
