My Own Prison

Court is in session
A verdict is in

No appeal on the docket today
Just my own sin

The walls, cold and pale
The cage made of steel

Screams fill the room
Alone, I drop and kneel

Silence now the sound
My breath the only motion around

Demons cluttering around
My face showing no emotion

Shackled by my sentence
Expecting no return

Here there is no penance
My skin begins to burn
And I said, ohh
So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride

And I said, ohh
All held captive out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We, the meek are all in one

I hear a thunder in the distance
See a vision of a cross
I feel the pain that was given
On a sad day of loss

A lion roars in the darkness
Only he holds the key

A light to free me from my burden
And grant me life eternally

Should have been dead
On a Sunday morning
Banging my head

No time for mourning
Ain't got no time

Should have been dead
On a Sunday morning
Banging my head

No time for mourning
Ain't got no time
And I said, ohh
So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride

And I said, ohh
All held captive out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We are meek, are all in one

I cry out to God
Seeking only His decision
Gabriel stand and confirms
I've created my own prison

I cry out to God
Seeking only His decision

Gabriel stand and confirms
I've created my own prison

And I said, ohh
So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride

And I said, ohh
All held captive out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We are meek, are all in one

And I said, ohh
So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride

And I said, ohh

All held captive out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We are meek, are all in one

Should have been dead
On a Sunday morning
Banging my head

No time for mourning

Ain't got no time
