The Prisoner Lyrics

Well, you're the prisoner locked in your cell You're living in your personal hell The prison bars block your view They don't exist except for you
Free, why can't you see how easily You could break those bars right down? New freedom found, travel around And find out exactly why
Give it a try, living the lie And try to solve the final clue See if it's true, find out just who The real enemy is you
Don't be afraid Don't be deceived A new world for you Can be conceived
Don't tell me 'bout how the world isn't fair How you'll live your life how you choose I don't want to hear another excuse How it ain't your fault when you lose
And you're the prisoner Your mind's diseased, my mind is cured
I was the prisoner but never again My worst enemy is now my friend Brainwashed, you'll probably believe That I gave it up for a new reprieve
Free, why can't you see how easily You could break those bars right down? New freedom found, travel around And find out exactly why
Give it a try, living the lie And try to solve the final clue See if it's true, find out just who The real enemy is you
Don't be afraid Don't be deceived A new world for you Can be conceived
Don't tell me 'bout how the world isn't fair How you'll live your life how you choose I don't want to hear another excuse How it ain't your fault when you lose
You say you're political I say, screw that, you're just a fool
You're the prisoner, I met a prisoner
