We are All Aging Prisoners
By Tina Maschi (copyright 2014)

Chorus
We are all aging prisoners
Living our lives behind bars
We are all aging in prison
Set the prisoner the free, humanity (2x)

Verse
There was a boy who climbed a mountain
Got in trouble along the way
Hurt someone before he jumped off the cliff
Down to deep water below
He went down, would you let him drown? (2x)
Chorus

Verse
There was a man who beat his wife
She fought back with a knife
The judge said twenty to life
And may you never see the light
Twenty to life
Do you think it is right?
Chorus

Bridge
There is a man in his cell
Would you let him yell?
Would you let him lie, let him cry, and die alone?
There is a man on the street
He is hungry
Would let him starve
Let him starve, let him carve, and chew on misery
There is a sick man with no home
Would you let beg, with no legs, and sleep on the pavement

Coda
To forgive is to set a prisoner free and realize the prisoner was you
Free them, free us, freedom, freedom, freedom
Freedom, freedom, freedom freedom
