Under The Dome Part 2

Inspired by Stephen King's book, Under The Doom

 

Rewrite of Red Hot Chilli Pepper's Under The Bridge

 

Sometimes I wonder who could be their wicked partner

Sometimes I wonder who is the fiend

Who put it here and why?

Inprisoned in the town where I live

Who will free us angels

From this devil's plan?

A.M. come and gone

Still trapped

As we approch approch yet another P.M.

Together this town cries

 

I drive on these lonesome streets

My tortured thoughts

Too close a companion

I search over all the hills

Trying to escape

What I am

Who I am slowly becoming

I know their secrets

Been part of their bad deeds

And I wonder sometimes

If it is my punishment

Trapped for all eternity

Yeah, all the time now I worry

That ain't no lie

 

I don't ever want to feel

Like I did on Dome Day

Take me back to the place I used to love

Take me back to the old way

Way it was before

Cause I don't wanna feel

Like I did on that first Dome Day

Take me back to the place I used to love

Take me back to the old way

Way it was before

Yeah yeah

 

It's hard to believe

That nobody can help us out here

It's hard to believe

We're so cut off and alone

At least I have my wife's love

That sweet lady

She loves me

Blind to the monster I really am

Together we cry

 

Chorus

 

Ooh no

No no

Yeah yeah

She loves me

Believes every lie I say

Yeah yeah

 

Under the dome

Prisoners in our own town

More and more

Every day

We draw blood

Under the dome

Prisoners in our own town

When will enough be enough?

Under the dome

Prisoners in our own town

What happened to good old fashioned love and respect?

Under the dome

Prisoners in our own town

 

I can feel my sanity slipping away

Yeah yeah

Ooh no

No no

Yeah yeah

Forever here will we stay

Yeah

Forever here will we stay
