Prisoner's Tears

A prisoner cries in the dark of his cell

He knows the price of living in hell

Nobody sees, nobody hears

But nothing 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 nothing falls as hard as a prisoner's tears

Counting the days, wondering 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 living in chains

Love made the walls, hell, and love keeps me here

Well, nothing falls as hard as a prisoner's tears

Nothing falls as hard as a prisoner's tears

A prisoner cries in the dark of his cell
