THE PRISONER

Once you let it out you can’t
Put it back again
Taken from the way you were
Take it on your stance
You see but have to turn away
Never can look on it straight
But what can be done today
It will have to wait

Leave while you can
Still turn back again
All the time you’ve known
You’re fading away I said
Leave while you can
Still come out ahead
Never knowing why
You’re fading away again

Every sorrow care and pain
Put it all aside
Never go back whence you came
(You’ve) Blown it open wide

That was in another place
All those scars have been erased
Realize it’s all a fake
Cause it’s still inside

Leave while you can
Still turn back again
All the time you’ve known
You’re fading away I said
Leave while you can
Still come out ahead
Never knowing why
You’re fading away again

You were taken from another time
I remember why you looked away
I know what you’re runnin from
I know that you were led astray
Starin down a sentence
Still the shackles only in your head
You’re holding on just let it go
And turn back instead

Leave while you can
Still turn back again
All the time you’ve known
You’re fading away I said
Leave while you can
Still come out ahead
Never knowing why
You’re fading away again
