Sometimes I feel like I'm a prisoner. 

I think I'm trapped here for a while

Yeah, and every breath I fight to take, 

It's as hard as these 4 walls I wanna break. 

Mmmmm-hmmm, I told the cops you wasn't here tonight, 

Messing around with me is gonna get you life... 

Oh yeah, yeah, but everytime I look into your eyes, 

Man, it's worth the sacrifice uuuuuuuuuuummmmm.

And this is the kind of love that the
