prison |
you feel the bars close tightly in
but who’s left there standing
and who’s holding those keys
keep crawling for daylight
even when the hour’s dim
and this mess of your confusion
fills your weary mind
with sleeplessness and depression
it’s not your imagination
causing all the complications
but we can’t change who we are
or cut out love from our hearts
if I knew you so long before
would it be enough to save you
and if it wasn’t about me
would those pieces really fit
cause I don’t see you being happy
when you’re living life that way
is it really what you want
to give your life for guilt and shame
does it bring you honour now
to give up those beautiful dreams
he talks in riddles still
and who has ears to hear
what he really wants to say
would you be so brave to listen
and not pour out condemnation
or push aside another way
somehow it’s your decision
cause our lives are in your hands
so let your heart be soft
and your logic lead the way
it’s far too much to risk
wishing for what has now ceased to exist
