[Verse 1]
Say that you a-need me and you're scared of me a-leavin
And that is the meaning behind closing in
Say you never deceive me and you hold onto me dearly
And that is reason that you're always watching
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't you know the walls you built you made so high
Center of a hurricane, down on a burning plane
The lies they rot, from the inside
Someone read between the lines
[Chorus]
I am just a prisoner
Captive of the good times
Until the sun comes around
Your mistakes, they are found
In the daylight
Don't tell me tomorrow
You're sorry for your crimes
There's a new sheriff in town
Your regime, I shakedown
This is goodbye
[Verse 2]
Play that you're so angry and you swear that's how you love me
But inside you're filling up with poison envy
Play like you're so charming but you come off quite alarming
And the cycle continues, my mind it keeps on spinning
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't you know the walls you built you made so high
Center of a hurricane, down on a burning plane
The lies they rot, from the inside
Someone read between the lines
[Chorus]
I am just a prisoner
Captive of the good times
Until the sun comes around
Your mistakes, they are found
In the daylight
Don't tell me tomorrow
You're sorry for your crimes
There's a new sheriff in town
Your regime, I shakedown
This is goodbye
[Bridge]
Shake
Down
Shake
Down
I gotta leave, you keep the keys
Im cutting the tether
Now i can breathe, roll down my sleeve
Things will get better
Cause we all know
Where this will go
If i stay any longer
So glad that
I woke up
Cause I know
I don't belong here
[Chorus]
I am just a prisoner
Captive of the good times
Until the sun comes around
Your mistakes, they are found
In the daylight
Don't tell me tomorrow
You're sorry for your crimes
There's a new sheriff in town
Your regime, I shakedown
This is goodbye
