lyrics

Hours stretch before me but I’m stuck in this moment
Everything’s wide open, but my feet are nailed to the ground
Angels above me, demon below
Both are interfering with whether I should stay or go
I keep pretending that I don’t have a choice
This battles never ending and I am my own prisoner of war

My own prisoner, my own prisoner of war…….

Dawn is barely breaking I can see a ray of light
Looking to the east the shadows reach behind me to the west
I’m never up this early, it’s such a change of pace
Something in me stirs as I watch the sunrise crown the day in grace
I feel I’m drifting to a different state of mind
Will my burdens be lifted, will this be a new chapter of my life

There will come a day, there will come a day……..

When I won’t be pretending that I don’t have a choice
My burdens will be lifting and I won’t be my own prisoner of war
