Prisoner of love lyrics


Verse 1: These cuffs are cold at night, planning my escape, you locked me in my cell as I lay awake, saying it’s too late. Knowing my condition, is the reason I must change, if love is a crime then maybe I’m the one to blame?


Chorus: I bang on these walls saying set me free, please set me free..yeah. Psychological locks this box, why do I have to be?

A prisoner of love

A prisoner of love

A prisoner of love

A prisoner of love….


Verse 2: Crying in the night, the darkness envelops me, your love was breaking the law but no one could see you was lying to me. This thief we can’t arrest, it’s just your heart, and your test uh…while I’m bleeding on the ground whose gonna rescue me…..


Cuz I’m dying on the ground whose gonna rescue me?

The enemy lies await I said whose gonna rescue me?


Chorus: I bang on these walls saying set me free, please set me free..yeah. Psychological locks this box, why do I have to be?

A prisoner of love

A prisoner of love

A prisoner of love

A prisoner of love….


Verse 3: money’s tossed around, just like my heart. But I’m so tired of being used and abused my worth torn apart. So I escaped this cell, your cauldron of love your self-made hell, and I found my own peace of mind, my bulletproof soul. I finally escaped from your prison saying set me free, you set me free yeah, I can finally see the lights no sleepless nights I don’t have to be…


Chorus: I bang on these walls saying set me free, please set me free..yeah. Psychological locks this box, why do I have to be?

A prisoner of love

A prisoner of love

A prisoner of love

A prisoner of love….


I don’t have to be held captive, by your cruel and brutish ways. No longer being confined and stifled, I hope you lie in your grave. I’m a soldier of love, and I conquered, I escaped your heartless ways. No more a prisoner, have fun while it lasts cuz I know what lasts and he’s up above….ooohhhh.

The only one who turns the key in your prison is you…….
