Under the Stairs

I took some bread to him today
He was awake, but he wouldn’t take it
He’s getting frailer every day
Tied to the chair, under the stairs
But death is not a friend he’s ever gonna meet
As long as I am here, he’s staying in that seat
And he’s gonna pay, in every way
The night he broke into her home
He thought he was strong, but god he was wrong
Now he’s naked and alone
Scarred and abused, battered and bruised
It’s only been a year but I have just begun
As long as I am here, I never will be done
Yeah, he’s gonna pay, in every way
Nothing in the world could ever pay his debt
But I am gonna get as close as I can get
Yeah, he’s gonna pay, in every way
