Prisons are heartless, they lack feeling and soul Bare stone walls and steel bars so cold Anger and hate runs coarse through its veins Violence and hurt are familar pains
Tensions are high as I walk through this place The stress and the strain are clear on my face 20 long years I have suffered to date Feeling bitter and lost, I despair of my fate
Time stands still in this house of stone Hundreds of people, yet we all feel alone They stare at me coldly through eyes so black I stare straight ahead, I dare turn my back
I'm no killer, no bad man, nor even a yob This place that cages us is merely my job For they are many and we are few They dont call me by name, they call me a *****
