Creed - My Own Prison (with lyrics)

A court is in session, a verdict is in
No appeal on the docket today
Just my own sin
The walls are cold and pale
The cage made of steel
Screams fill the room
Alone I drop and kneel
Silence now the sound
My breath the only motion around
Demons cluttering around
My face showing no emotion
Shackled by my sentence
Expecting no return
Here there is no penance
My skin begins to burn

(And I said oh) So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
(And I said oh) We're all held captive
Out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one

I hear a thunder in the distance
See a vision of a cross
I feel the pain that was given
On that sad day of loss
A lion roars in the darkness
Only he holds the key
A light to free me from my burden
And grant me life eternally

Should have been dead
On a Sunday morning
Banging my head
No time for mourning
Ain't got no time

(And I said oh) So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
(And I said oh) We're all held captive
Out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one

[Guitar break]

I cry out to God
Seeking only his decision
Gabriel stands and confirms
I've created my own prison
I cry out to God
Seeking only his decision
Gabriel stands and confirms
I've created my own prison

(And I said oh) So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
(And I said oh) We're all held captive
Out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one

(And I said oh) So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
(And I said oh) We're all held captive
Out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one

Should've been dead on a Sunday morning
banging my head
No time for mourning
Ain't got no time

@TheBdl1978 Coincidence does not always necessitate God to bring it to pass, it is just manners to thank God when such an occasion has passed (for we are man and ignorant of God's works). Also, God's habitation is not in the sky.

Also, of what am I ignorant? Very much, but specifically what? Reality is what one makes of it; and death nor Hell scares me. I do not believe in God for fear His wrath may fall but that His grace may champion me to virtue and His companionship.

I cry out to God

Seeking only his decision

Gabriel stands and confirms

I've created my own prison

I cry out to God

Seeking only his decision

Gabriel stands and confirms

I've created my own prison

love this song

[slipknotian99]

@3mrmen My emotions get pretty flared up when I listen o this song too man. That line "So I held my head up high hiding hate that burns inside, which only fuels there selfish pride." describes me so well at times when on the outside I'm happy go lucky cause I don't want to show how ugly I am on the inside.

*sigh*........I would like to listen to at least ONE Creed song without going to the comments and seeing a bunch of people fighting over religion. Some people believe, some don't.......it's not really that big of a deal. Listen to the music.......

hiding hate that burns inside,

which only fuels their selfish pride.
