Prison Lyrics by Devin Dawson

Dark Horse

2018

[Verse 1]
I stole some hearts but dodged the bars out on the run
Committed crimes but not the time I should've done
I'd feel the cops, that was enough to start laying low
Until the day I felt these chains not letting go

[Bridge]
Call me a convict, I've been convicted
Serving the verdict, a live sentence

[Chorus]
You've got me locked up
Go on and throw away the key
I ain't ever gonna leave this prison
You got me locked down
For twenty-four hours a day
I ain't ever gonna break this prison
Couldn't run, couldn't hide even if I tried
Girl I know you would find me and I'd wind up back in it
Your love is like a prison
Your love is like a prison

[Verse 2]
Girl you're my judge, my jury, my executioner
No other way I'd have it babe, I'm your prisoner
Yeah I'm your prisoner

[Chorus]
You've got me locked up
Go on and throw away the key
I ain't ever gonna leave this prison
You got me locked down
For twenty-four hours a day
I ain't ever gonna break this prison
Couldn't run, couldn't hide even if I tried
Girl I know you would find me and I'd wind up back in it
Your love is like a prison
Your love is like a prison

[Bridge]
Call me a convict, I've been convicted
Serving the verdict, a live sentence

[Chorus]
You've got me locked up
Go on and throw away the key
I ain't ever gonna leave this prison
You got me locked down
For twenty-four hours a day
I ain't ever gonna break this prison
Couldn't run, couldn't hide even if I tried
Girl I know you would find me and I'd wind up back in it
Your love is like a prison
Your love is like a prison
