I need you ’cause I have a problem tonight Cold breeze in a storm and electric night Shut down the city ’cause I’ll do that for you I can taste the bitter sting of the blue
Stop and pray for a while For everything goes wrong My heart goes out on pause for you When we sing the prisoner’s song The prisoner’s song
I refuse to be a beaten man I won’t accept defeat I’ve been reaching for the stars ‘Cause you know I’m hard to beat So step aside and wait your turn ‘Cause you will get your time But not till I’m dead and gone ‘Cause I ain’t finished with mine, no
Stop and pray for a while For everything goes wrong My hearts goes out on pause for you When we sing the prisoner’s song The prisoner’s song
Sacrifice our souls for a working wage A constant state of manifest rage Cast off, abandoned and into the cold Their time will come Before they grow old
Stop and pray for a while For everything goes wrong My hearts goes out on pause for you When we sing the prisoner’s song The prisoner’s song
