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
