You want me to be the silent one
|
But I can't run from what I know
|
When it makes me mad, so mad, I've got to let it go
|
It's better it's said than left undone
|
Out in the sun we'll see it clear
|
And if I'm alone, alone I'm chained to this idea
|
Prisoner of conscience, but the
|
Captain of my soul
|
Prisoner of conscience, but the
|
Captain of my soul
|
I said that I'd found my matching heart
|
And that's a start to build upon
|
Foundation strong, so strong, it never should go wrong
|
If I see a break within these walls
|
If it's too small, we can repair
|
But if it's much, too much I'll break the hurt and break the despair
|
Prisoner of conscience, but the
|
Captain of my soul
|
Prisoner of conscience, but the
|
Captain of my soul
|
To shout out loud seems an easy touch
|
And yet so much stands in the way
|
So I want to be heard, be heard you've got to let me say
|
I'm saying it loud even though I've found
|
The tender ground that hurts so much
|
But it has to be said, be said, the truth can hurt so much
|
Prisoner of conscience, but the
|
Captain of my soul
|
Prisoner of conscience, but the
|
Captain of my soul
|
Prisoner of conscience, but the
|
Captain of my soul
|
Prisoner of conscience, but the
|
Captain of my soul
|
