Ashamed
Hold my hands across my eyes
I can't let them see these tears I cry
I can't let them know I shake with fright
They have made me look therefore I die
Too late to hate is all I learn
One small sip of drink is all I earn
One small hour to think as my world turns
I have sinned now I must burn
Whisper softly in my ear
This may be the last time you will hear
This may collaborate all your fears
try to look away from my final year
jump the gates and you are free
Don't get weighed down so heavily
Don't be so complimentary
This ghostly vision keeps haunting me
Day and night is all I know
As I see freedom long ago
As I sit I hear the prison groan
That is wrong because it can't moan
