Paul Young - Prisoner of Conscience lyrics

You want me to be the silent one But I can't run from what I know When it makes me mad, so mad, I've got to let it go It's better it's said than left undone Out in the sun we'll see it clear And if I'm alone, alone I'm chained to this idea Prisoner of conscience, but the Captain of my soul Prisoner of conscience, but the Captain of my soul I said that I'd found my matching heart And that's a start to build upon Foundation strong, so strong, it never should go wrong If I see a break within these walls If it's too small, we can repair But if it's much, too much I'll break the hurt and break the despair Prisoner of conscience, but the Captain of my soul Prisoner of conscience, but the Captain of my soul To shout out loud seems an easy touch And yet so much stands in the way So I want to be heard, be heard you've got to let me say I'm saying it loud even though I've found The tender ground that hurts so much But it has to be said, be said, the truth can hurt so much Prisoner of conscience, but the Captain of my soul Prisoner of conscience, but the Captain of my soul Prisoner of conscience, but the Captain of my soul Prisoner of conscience, but the Captain of my soul
