Prisoner

You hold me with your Arms
You threaten me with harm
You demand I accept your way

Will you blind me with a smile?
Treat me to your bile?
Claim I choose this fate?

Underneath the stars
Another takes my place
Underneath the stars
We see your disgrace

All that I wanted
Was truth and dignity
All that I fought for
Was the right to be free

And to bring an end to
Violence and it's tyranny
And your cruelty

The years will pass us by
The tears of love will cry
Will you understand why?

Your deeds will be recalled
Your deeds will be appalled
But you don't care at all

Somewhere far and near
Another takes my place
Somewhere far and near
We see your disgrace

All that I wanted
Was truth and dignity
All that I fought for
Was the right to be free

And bring an end to
Tyrants and their company
And their cruelty

Underneath the stars
Another takes my place
Underneath the stars
We see your disgrace

All that I wanted
Was truth and liberty
All that I fought for
Was respect and dignity

So bring an end to
Violence and it's tyranny
And it's cruelty
