Lyrics

Moonlight rise and shake
Darlin I’m awake
I Cannot seem to sleep
My Worries run too deep
Morning come I’m tired as hell
One more day locked up in a prison cell

Daylight come and go
No one seems to know
For all that I can do
I’ve skills I never use
By nighttime come my soul’s a shell
One more day locked up in a prison cell

Some day I’ll break free
From these chains a-holdin’ me
I’ll Unlock these shackles
crafted by society
But please no sympathy
I’ve always had the key

Every souls a voice
and every day a choice
But could there be a land
Where we’ve made other plans?
Or is this the one story we tell?
One more day locked up in a prison cell
One more day locked up in a prison cell
One more day locked up in a prison cell
