Prison lyrics

Artist  : New Model Army 
Song : Prison



 Send "Prison" Ringtone to your Cell 

 The curtain breathes, the air swims

The sweat dries cold on the shivering skin

The sheets they twist and turn again, round and
round

My mother she feeds and cares for me

Shackled to responsibility

All her precious dreams for me crashing down 

Ch: Tell them all to go away, tell them all I'll
be OK

Tell them all just not today, not today . . .




They're building special facilities

Laboratory animals die for me

I live with my humility - humility

November 1989, they're dancing on the Berlin Wall
tonight

I feel the flow of history and have no part 

Ch: Tell them all to go away, tell them all I'll
be OK

Tell them all just not today, not today . . .




A little night in town we said - oh I remember
very well

They'll be out of prison soon and me I'm locked
forever in this . . . 



I went for my mother to a holy shrine

The wheelchairs rattled through the afternoon

Over the cobbles and up the hill

In an ordered procession of desperate will

It hurts just the way it hurts today

Those moments come, then recede away

Better to accept what you cannot change

The less the pain . . . 

Ch: Tell them all to go away, tell them all I'll
be OK

Tell them all just not today, not today . . .
