Lyrics

(Verse)
He carved his name
In the crumbling walls of his 9x13 cell
And he said, "this is Hell,
but I know"

A man like me
can't be free, cause of all the wrong I've done. I was young,
Long ago.

And now he waits
Passing time until his long coming fate
And he hopes for a light

(Verse 2)
She tries to sleep
But she weeps for a child so far away
That she knows couldn't stay.
In her arms

Her sorrow grows.
There's an empty place of darkness deep inside
Where she thinks she can hide
From the harm

Now she stays
Alone with all the memories never made.
But she longs for the sight.

(Chorus)
Cause she'll be
Free at last
When her pain and sorrow all are passed .
Because she knows she can't make it alone

When she flies she'll
Dry her eyes and

memories fade
of the world for which she knows she wasn't made

(Verse 3)
A child is born
Soon we mourn as her innocence it fades.
Learns to doubt. Learns to hate.
So it goes

You cry for me
And I have learned that I should cry for you.
cause the world can be cruel
I suppose

But I can't stay
I'm leaving now and living in the day
say goodbye to the night
