Our invisible bars

To carry on without a you at home
No smoke and fire in the hearth
The key that locked in that forlorn
We had plan A, a life to chart

Chorus
A together split apart
A together with our feet stuck in the mud
Without the funds to share our dreams
Ours single beds in the house with mum and dad
The chains of cash we never have
The chains of cash we never had
the bars that hold our lives asunder

Gazed in widows holding hands
And credit cards were like handcuffs
Walls that minimum wage cant climb
A future without any stuff
La la la lalala the hoarder and his deputy
La la la lalala la life just holds IOU's for me
The prison of the social scale
The judgements cash flow fraying ends
 Robbery when you lose your friends
Just solitary confinement the open jail

Can you steal what is not there
When you find an empty money tree
The cage that separates a loving pair
A bar code of just negative equity

Chorus 2
A together split apart
A commitment of loneliness for good
The diamond ring the needs of womanhood
The debtors prison that kept apart
A life of crime to steal back my broken heart
Do what it takes to escape the penance
Make the bars real for a life sentence
La la la lalalal la the hoarder and his deputy
La la la lalalal la------ this life just holds IOU's for me
