Prisoner's Tears

A prisoner cries in the dark of his cell

He knows the price of livin' in hell

Nobody sees, nobody hears

But nothin' falls as hard as a prisoner's tears

I've never been locked behind walls of stone

But I've been a prisoner deep down in my bones

No judge and no jury but the sentence is clear

And nothin' falls as hard as a prisoner's tears

Counting the days, wonderin' when

This prisoner's heart will finally mend

Counting the days, wonderin' when

This prisoner's heart will finally mend

They say I'm free now but they can't feel my pain

They don't see my shackles but I'm livin' in chains

Love made the walls, love keeps me here

Well, nothin' falls as hard as a prisoner's tears

Nothin' falls as hard as a prisoner's tears

A prisoner cries in the dark of his cell
