Letras de Prison

Curtain breeze, the air swims
Sweat dries cold on the shivering skin
Sheets they twist and turn again
Round and round

Mother she feeds and cares for me
Shackled to responsibility
All her precious dreams for me
Crashing down

Tell them all to go away
Tell them all I′ll be OK
Tell them all just not today
Not today, not today

Building special facilities
Laboratory animals die for me
I live with my humility
Humility

November 1989
We're dancing on the Berlin Wall tonight
Feel the flow of history
And have no part

Tell them all to go away
Tell them all I′ll be OK
Tell them all just not today
Not today, please not today

A little night in town we say
Oh I remember very well
They'll be out of prison soon
And me I'm stuck forever in this

A walk from my mother to a holy shrine
The wheelchairs rattle to the afternoon
Over the cobbles and up the hill
In an ordered procession of desperate will
It hurts just the way it hurt today
Those moments come then recede away
Better to accept what you cannot change
The less the pain

Tell them all to go away
Tell them all I′ll be OK
Tell them all just not today
Not today, please not today
