The Prison

You ended up behind bars
 Never thought this is how it ends
 This prison is made for the damned and vile
 You may spend here the rest of your life
 The thought of leaving is unbearable
 You are living day to day in fear
 The doubt in your heart has raised its voice
 A way out is the only choice
 The pain of staying will eat you alive
 Walls are closing in day by day
 The longer you stay, the harder you fall
 Freedom truly is the toughest call
 They pushed you down, locked you in place and
 You know nothing of the world outside
 The Prison won't break you
 And nothing else will
 Everything on the outside
 Tastes sweet like summer rain
 Cut the bars or stay forever in
 Just close the door and fade away
 Have you felt the sweetness of freedom
 Have you drunk from the fountain of life
 Hear the wind howls in the wild
 See the brightest northern nights
 The years of strife were not what they said
 The prison is just in your head
 They pushed you down, locked you in place and
 You know nothing of the world outside
 The Prison won't break you...
 Have you seen the stars and moon
 Have you seen how the world opens over you
 The Prison won't break you...
