Playing prison


When you say that I have done it before
So it should come easy now
(well) Come the day when we show us to the door
There'll be sorrow
Throwing shadow
Chasing rainbow
Anyhow
And then I think of why I'm leaving again
And why I'll never settle down
Loathe to further so-called civilisation
Growing sorrow
Throwing shadow
Chasing rainbow
Anyhow
Somewhere in the world if I care I have my children
Somewhere in the world outside the ark
Somewhere in the world here and there I always left them
Somewhere in the world like you said I left my mark
Just a trace forever leaving
It sure comes easy now
From a place I disbelieve in
Growing sorrow
Throwing shadow
Chasing rainbow
Playing prison
Anyhow

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
