Locked up in a white room, underneath a glaring light Every 5 minutes, they're asking me if I'm alright Locked up in a white room naked as the day I was born 24 bright light, 24 all alone What I did was show some truth to the working man What I did was blow the whistle and the games began Tell the truth and it will set you free That's what they taught me as a child But I can't be silent after all I've seen and done 24 bright light I'm almost gone, almost gone Locked up in a white room, dying to communicate Trying to hang in there underneath a crushing wait Locked up in a white room I'm always facing time 24 bright light, 24 down the line What I did was show some truth to the working man What I did was blow the whistle and the games began But I did my duty to my country first That's what they taught me as a man But I can't be silent after all I've seen and done 24 bright light I'm almost gone, almost gone (Treat me like a human, Treat me like a man)
