The Prisoner
Captive Reflections: Unveiling the Essence Within
Lyrics
You have watched me, safe in your anonymity
You have observed me from a position of safety and hidden identity.
I have dreamed you, held in your security
I have envisioned you while under the protection of your safety.
Some people believe a photograph traps your mortal soul
Some people believe that a photograph can capture and imprison one's soul.
Your eyes ARE the camera and you've TAKEN hold
Your eyes function as the camera, and you have taken control.
And you captured me
You have successfully captured and influenced me.
I need you to take control
I require you to assume command or authority.
I am a prisoner of no confidence
I find myself confined by a lack of self-assurance.
You've entered me now make me whole
You have penetrated my being; now, bring completeness to me.
Every place I go I feel your lenses trained on me
Wherever I go, I sense your scrutinizing gaze through your lenses.
This distant concentration takes away my energy
This distant focus depletes my energy.
Your image burns it's negative
Your image leaves a lasting negative impression.
Behind my waking eyes
Even when awake, the imprint remains behind my eyes.
Then the night comes and you stalk your prize
During the night, you pursue and hunt your chosen prey.
And you captured me
Once again, you have successfully captured and influenced me.
I need you to take control
I still need you to exert control over me.
I am a prisoner of no confidence
I am confined by a lack of confidence.
You've entered me now make me whole
You have entered into my existence; now, bring completeness to me.
Some people believe a photograph traps your mortal soul
(Reiteration) Some believe that a photograph traps the soul.
Your eyes were the camera and you've taken hold
(Reiteration) Your eyes are the camera, and you've taken control.
And you captured me
(Reiteration) Once again, you have successfully captured and influenced me.
I need you to take control
(Reiteration) I still need you to exert control over me.
I am a prisoner of no confidence
(Reiteration) I am confined by a lack of confidence.
You've entered me now make me whole
(Reiteration) You have entered into my existence; now, bring completeness to me.
