The Prisoner |
I was mad and was accepted |
For treatment at a hospital |
For the mentally sick |
I was wild and introvert |
Wondering alone |
In the night |
I would scream and rage |
Should someone |
Disturb my peace |
So they took me away |
And they put me here alone |
In my silent privacy |
Then they gave me shock treatment |
When I woke I was numb |
And remembered nothing |
Probe me mold me |
Reassemble my brain, my brain |
Schizoid paranoid |
Just terms, just names, just names |
Why can’t you leave me |
Don’t drive me insane, insane |
Your minds analyze me |
Your eyes penetrate me |
Illusion, confusion |
I’m frightened, I’m helpless |
Please leave me |
I long to be free |
I lie alone unable to remember |
No face no names no eyes my brain just an ember |
Kindle me protect my barren matter |
Whose seeds may propagate yet still they shatter |
They have emptied my head of its dreamin' |
Like paper out of a waste bin |
And I yearned to be free |
Cold is the climate dark is the atomic night |
Searching and hoping guarding my mind from your sight |
Your evil eyes watch me your evil hands touch me they’re cold |
I can stand prison but even my conscience you hold |
Let me be |
Set me free |
Probe me mold me |
Reassemble my brain, my brain |
Schizoid paranoid |
Just terms, just names, just names |
Why can’t you leave me |
Don’t drive me insane |
Insane |
Insane |
Insane |
Insane |
