~ A Prisoner of Life ~
by Jim Cherry
Daily news on TV
Creating bounds of realty
Constantly making me
a prisoner of life

Rumors all over town
Who's been busted ... who wears the crown
Ball and chaining me tightly down
a prisoner of life

Local news . . . gossipy
anchoring creativity
Constantly keeping me
a prisoner of life

So where exactly should I be?
To escape and flee reality
and break the chains making me
a prisoner of life
