Asylum Lyrics by Lita Ford

Living Like a Runaway

2012

Walking through these halls
Filled with anger
Screaming for my life
But no one answers
And in my head, the voice of doom
The walls are cold and I sit true
I'm forever lost in the asylum
The scars of your love on my wrist
The scars of madness on your fist
I tried to save the ones I love
I prayed for help from God above
I'm forever lost in the asylum
No one will believe the story I tell
No one could imagine such a lonely hell
No one seems to help me now
As though my words were all blacked out
And written on the walls of the asylum, yeah
Instead, I turn those tables 'round
You knock me down on hallowed ground
Our wedding vows we'll pronounce, into the asylum
The whispers of the ghosts of dreams
The way I hoped my life would be
One day, I know you'll realize
Our love was meant to die
I don't wanna die in the asylum
The writing on the wall in the asylum
