Prisoner

If I'm underneath the table

Then pour me another drink

Oh, I don't want to remember

I don't even want to think

I'm a slave to my addiction

I'm a hazard to myself

On a fast ride to perdition

Oh, I'm heading straight to hell

When I throw up out your window

You should confiscate my keys

I will drive you up the fuckin' wall

Is it too late to believe? Whoa

I tried so hard to change

But the devil locked my door

I wear these heavy chains around my neck

Like a prisoner

I just wanna love

But he won' let me go

Loosen up my chains

Oh, I'm a condemned prisoner

Oh, oh, oh

I'm a condemned prisoner

I stood there in the spotlight

With the city at my feet

But I was a dead man walking

Nothing ever comes for free

So I moved on down to London

Where I traded in my soul

I could not fill my heart

With all those one night stands and gold

So throw me out your mom's house

I've been living there too long

Well she never liked me anyway

'Cause she knows I'm northern scum

I tried so hard to change

But the devil locked my door

I wear these heavy chains around my neck

Like a prisoner

I just wanna love

But he won' let me go

Loosen up my chains

Oh, I'm a condemned prisoner

I fill my mind to the brink

So I get high, so high and I drink

I suffered enough of the hard parts when I think

Discovered the up at the bar nine drink in, eh

And now I'm at the disco, convinced the girls think I'm the bizzo

Of course I'm on the brink

Look at me funny, of course I'm gonna swing

Karaoke, course I wanna sing

Whoa, pour me another drink

It always ends the same

Oh, oh, oh

I'm a condemned prisoner

I tried so hard to change

But the devil locked my door

I wear these heavy chains around my neck

Like a prisoner

I just wanna love

But he won' let me go

Loosen up my chains

Oh, I'm a condemned prisoner
