Melissa Etheridge - The Prison текст песни

I was high and dry like the kansas sky

If I ached for any more I knew Id surely die

Night after night trying to get out of my skin

Day after lonely day

Youd send me back again

I have stood inside this prison

I have touched its stony walls

I know before you try to run

You gotta learn to crawl

I tried to leave it all behind me

I drove all night just to drive all day

But the walls of this prison still surround me

And I cant break away

I held you so close I thought my soul would break

But you were just a ghost

The holiest mistake

I will not be a judge or the one to set you free

Ill just keep on drivin

And times a friend to me

I have stood inside this prison

I have touched its stony walls

I know before you try to run

You gotta learn to crawl

I tried to leave it all behind me

I drove all night I drove all day

But the walls of this prison still surround me

And I cant break away

The sentence has been read everything is done

I wish I could say goodbye to you

Wish I could hold the sun

My eyes are dull and burnt

And they lie to me sometimes

Cause I thought I saw you cryin

I have stood inside this prison

I have touched its stony walls

I know before you try to run

You gotta learn to crawl

I tried to leave it all behind me

In my dreams somehow I got away

But the walls of this prison still surround me

And I cant break away
