"Wood And Wire" lyrics - THRICE

14 years behind these bars
A 12-foot square of cold cement
I've lost nearly everything
For a crime of which I'm innocent

But all my suffering's
A light and momentary pain
While the weight of
An endless glory still remains to me

Dead man walking down the hall
To meet a mess of wood and wire
They lead me where men fear to tread
But towards the thing I most desire

For all my suffering's
A light and momentary pain
While the weight of
An endless glory still remains to me

So throw the switch, son
I know you ain't got a choice
The dawn is coming
All is well, I will rejoice
