lyrics

Locked up in a prison cell
Broken skin and feeling ill
Her face floods through my drying tears
My conscious mind cannot compute
Figure out, this feeling, this shiver,
That runs down my spine
She opens up her mouth
Reveals the true facts
And I spin out of control

Feed me a bitter pill to numb my mind
I see her
Still, I don’t have a chance
To get out of this
Not a chance in hell

She put down the photograph
Then she turned her face away
I couldn’t make out what she asked
I couldn’t make out what she tried to say

When we were out
Talking in the cold
Hiding from the eyes
From their prying eyes

Don’t ask me why

Feed me a bitter pill to numb my mind
I see her
Still, I don’t have a chance
To get out of this
Not a chance in hell
