Kristi K. - Prison

How do you break the frame
When it’s all that you know
How do you change the past
And learn to let go
My feet are tryin' to steady
Walking on this tight rope
Stepping in blind
Time after time
A prisoner of my own mind
I let my demon run
The angel fell behind
Now I’m the only one
No where for me to hide
Better days are lookin'
At me, laughin' on the other side
Burning the rope
The signal of smoke
I’m begging for someone to get me out alive
I built this prison for myself
Filled it with my guilt
Threw away the key
But now I’m breaking free
What good is heaven without hell
Or silence in my cell
Took the pain to see
There’s so much more to me
I start to make my move
The stars all have aligned
I got something to prove
And finally got my sign
I know what is waiting for me just beyond the other side
Learning to cope
Clearing the smoke
I built this prison for myself
Filled it with my guilt
Threw away the key
But now I’m breaking free
What good is heaven without hell
Or silence in my cell
Took the pain to see
There’s so much more to me
Oh, I’m begging for someone else
Oh, someone to get me out
Oh, I’m begging for something else
Something I’ve never felt
Steady my feet and I walk out of my hell
This room
Feels like all I ever knew
Wither, bloom
Paint the world in front of you
This room
Won’t be all I ever knew
Won’t be all I ever knew
I built this prison for myself
Filled it with my guilt
Threw away the key
But now I’m breaking free
What good is heaven without hell
Or silence in my cell
Took the pain to see
There’s so much more to me
Oh, I’m begging for someone else
Oh, someone to get me out
Oh, I’m begging for something else
Something I’ve never felt
