PRISON WITHOUT END
[Verse 1]
I’ve been searching for answers
In the silence of the night
Why’d you walk away from love
Without a word, without a fight?
It’s hard enough with just the truth—
But the silence cuts deeper than goodbye.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every moment feels like a prison without end
The verdict was spoken, but I can’t comprehend
Chains of memories, still hangin’ in the wind
Living in limbo… lost within.
[Chorus]
Was it something I said or did?
Is there someone else you’re dreamin’ of?
How did we let it slip so far,
And tear apart what we called love?
Every moment’s a prison without end
And I’m the one who can’t pretend—
These memories drag me back again
Baby, this limbo’s my prison without end.
[Verse 2]
You were my lover, my best friend too
I close my eyes, I still see you
Are we forever over… or is there a chance to mend?
This limbo’s breaking me, girl—amen.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every moment feels like a prison without end
The verdict was spoken, I just don't understand
Chains of memories, like ghosts beneath my skin
Living in limbo… lost within.
[Chorus]
Was it something I said or did?
Is there someone else you’re dreamin’ of?
How did we let it slip so far,
And tear apart what we called love?
Every moment’s a prison without end
And I’m the one who can’t pretend—
These memories drag me back again
Baby, this limbo’s my prison without end.
[Bridge]
You wanted freedom—your own Fourth of July
Left me standin’ here with nothin’ but goodbye
Maybe I’m the one who pushed too hard
Now I’m the ghost still holdin’ on to your heart
Forever locked away...
I threw the key… and now I pay.
[Final Chorus]
Longin’ for answers I’ll never find
Maybe it was me who left us behind
I pushed too hard—couldn’t see
Now this prison’s holdin’ me
Every moment’s a prison without end
And I’m the one who can’t pretend—
These memories drag me back again
Baby, this limbo’s my prison without end.
[Outro]
Forever locked away…
I’m the one who threw the key away.
