Creed - My Own Prison lyrics
[Creed - My Own Prison lyrics]
Court is in session a verdict is in
No appeal on the docket today
Just my own sin the walls are 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 ohhh (So I held my head up high)
(Hiding hate that burns inside)
(Which only fuels their selfish pride)
And I said ohhh
(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 that 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 there on a Sunday morning
Banging my head no time for mourning
Ain't got no time should have been there
On a Sunday morning banging my head
No time for mourning ain't got no time
And I said ohhh (So I held my head up high)
(Hiding hate that burns inside)
(Which only fuels their selfish pride)
And I said ohhh
(All held captive, out from the sun)
(A sun that shines on only some)
(We the meek are all in one)
I cry out to God seeking only His decision
Gabriel stands and confirms
I've created my own prison i cry out to God
Seeking only His decision
Gabriel stands and confirms
I've created my own prison
And I said ohhh (So I held my head up high)
(Hiding hate that burns inside)
(Which only fuels their selfish pride)
And I said ohhh
(All held captive, out from the sun)
(A sun that shines on only some)
(We the meek are all in one)
And I said ohhh (So I held my head up high)
(Hiding hate that burns inside)
(Which only fuels their selfish pride)
And I said ohhh i created, I created
(All held captive, out from the sun)
I created, I created
(A sun that shines on only some)
I created my own prison
(We the meek are all in one)
Should have been there on a Sunday morning
Banging my head no time for mourning
Ain't got no time
No appeal on the docket today
Just my own sin the walls are 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 ohhh (So I held my head up high)
(Hiding hate that burns inside)
(Which only fuels their selfish pride)
And I said ohhh
(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 that 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 there on a Sunday morning
Banging my head no time for mourning
Ain't got no time should have been there
On a Sunday morning banging my head
No time for mourning ain't got no time
And I said ohhh (So I held my head up high)

Banging my head no time for mourning
Ain't got no time
