melissa etheridge - the prison lyrics

Loading...

i was high and dry like the kansas sky
if i ached for any more i knew i’d surely die
night after night trying to get out of my skin
day after lonely day
you’d send me back again

i have stood inside this prison
i have touched it’s 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 can’t 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
i’ll just keep on drivin’
and time’s a friend to me

i have stood inside this prison
i have touched it’s 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 can’t 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’ll lie to me sometimes
cause i thought i saw you cryin’

i have stood inside this prison
i have touched it’s 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 can’t break away
