The prisoner, he is losing his precious eyesight, and he is quite glad For years now, never had the chance to intrude, The world he never knew. To him, nothing left to see other than his crummy cell. In rhyme, he prays every night He asks for guidance and asked for peace On unpainted walls he sees his reflection, dull and disturbing feats In his flesh, there's a certain feeling he won't figure. He is empty, lacks the soul, the will to go out side. The prisoner is actually a freeman. The prisoner is me.

Prisoner's Point of View.
The prisoner, he is losing his precious eyesight, and he is quite glad For years now, never had the chance to intrude, The world he never knew. To him, nothing left to see other than his crummy cell. In rhyme, he prays every night He asks for guidance and asked for peace On unpainted walls he sees his reflection, dull and disturbing feats In his flesh, there's a certain feeling he won't figure. He is empty, lacks the soul, the will to go out side. The prisoner is actually a freeman. The prisoner is me.
* Unpainted walls, i see my reflection My prison cell is a state of mind Losing my sight is losing my appetite Certain feeling on my flesh is numbness I introduced my self to the world anonymously, i am glad now i can. Good night, January. Sorry for typos, its me
