Suicidal Tendencies - The Prisoner lyrics

rate me

[Louiche/Mike Muir]

You're the prisoner locked in your cell

You're living in your personal hell

Invisible bars block your view

They don't exist except for you

Free, why can't you see how easily

You could break those bars right down

New freedom found, travel around

And find out exactly why

Give it a try, living the lie

And try to solve the final clue

See if it's true, found out just who

The real enemy is you

Don't be afraid

Don't be deceived

A new world for you

Can be conceived

Don't tell me 'bout how the world isn't fair

How you'll live your life how you choose

I don't want to hear another excuse

How it ain't your fault when you lose

And you're the prisoner

Your mind's diseased, my mind is cured

I was the prisoner but never again

My worst enemy is now my friend

Brainwashed, you'll probably believe

I gave it up for a new reprieve

Free, why can't you see how easily

You could break those bars right down

New freedom found, travel around

And find out exactly why

Give it a try, living the lie

And try to solve the final clue

See if it's true, found out just who

The real enemy is you

You say you're political

I say, "Screw that, you're just a fool."
