Holding Cell

Strength has a name today She is a child of God Even when locked away She's still so sure that you won't Let her down Sings as she prays for you What a sound All that she made it through Holding cell, holding cell I can't get well while you hold me Still and lonely, only cold things They moved my court date, I can't afford that I say the Lord's Prayer I been through more than you could imagine in 20 birthdays I want a quiet life in a flat with church on a Sunday I got a voice and I got a laugh And I'll use it one day For now, please just hear me out I am speaking through bars And writing you cards and keeping count I know God he won't leave me I'm friends with patience, all amounts 'Til the moment I'm free Then I'll keep on waiting, 'til they count me Holding cell, holding cell I can't get well while you hold me Still and lonely, only cold things
