Jail

I felt my whole life was confined to a dark, cinder block prison.
I was afraid to even think about the future.
Every mention of plans made me panic, and I couldn't find peace.
So, I prayed for something to come along and help me.
Then you called, and since then, I have begun to pick the lock in my jail cell door,
And I am smiling too, cuz it's a lot easier than I first expected.
