Prisoner of Shame


Verse 1
I'm sitting in this jail, thinking bout what I've done.
Thinking bout the days, when I was free and young.
The chains that bind me, oh they're heavy on my soul.
Oh Lord won't you help me, get me out of this hole.


Verse 2
The memories of my past, haunt me through the night
Regrets and mistakes keep me up until daylight
I see the world outside, but in this lonely cell I wait.
Wish I could turn back the hands of time, and change my fate

Chorus
Behind these bars, I long to be free
To feel the sun upon my face and taste sweet liberty
The days are endless, and the nights are filled with pain
Behind these bars I'm just a prisoner of shame.

(break)

Verse 3
The days turn into years, but my spirit won't break
I'll keep on fighting for my sanity's sake
Oh the choices that I made led me to this place of strife
Now I'm paying the price serving 20 years to life

Chorus
Behind these bars, I long to be free
To feel the sun upon my face and taste sweet liberty
The days are endless, and the nights are filled with pain
Behind these bars I'm just a prisoner of shame.

Tag
Behind these bars I'm just a prisoner of shame
Behind these bars I'm just a prisoner of shame.
