  1. Carefree Prisoner -:-- / 3:40

I place a diamond in your anxious palm
Whilst beneath your trepid face lies a soothing calm
The hunger erased, consumed by desire
You pour scorn upon the words of a liar

Carefree prisoner, you said nothing at all for you were just a carefree prisoner
Carefree prisoner, you said nothing at all for you were just a carefree prisoner

Empty words limply spoken through an open door
Platitudes many would have sought are cast aside in your thoughts
Dealt a blow from which you would never recover
Handed a glimpse of a world you would never discover

Carefree prisoner, you said nothing at all for you were just a carefree prisoner
Carefree prisoner, you said nothing at all for you were just a carefree prisoner

A benediction framed in tears, a hand that claws you back
You have no cause to leave reality, save for your dream that savaged fact

Carefree prisoner, you said nothing at all for you were just a carefree prisoner
Carefree prisoner, you said nothing at all for you were just a carefree prisoner
