Thoughts
AS I SIT HERE IN THIS CELL,
THINKING WHY THE BLOODY HELL,
AS EVEN THOUGH I COMMITTED A CRIME,
I DONT THINK I SHOULD BE HERE ALL THIS TIME,
AND AS MY THOUGHTS JUST DRIFT AWAY,
I LONG TO SEE A BRAND NEW DAY,
AND AS I LOOK OUT INTO THE NIGHT,
I TRY TO PUT THE WRONG,THE WRONG THINGS RIGHT,
BUT AS I AM HERE AND I HAVE TO STAY,
I QUESS IT BEST TO PLAY THEIR GAME,
AND AS ITS TIME TO GO TO BED,
SOME-TIMES I FEEL I AM BETTER OFF DEAD
