[Verse 1]
I was high and dry
Like the Kansas sky
If I ached for any more
I knew I'd surely die
Night after night
Tryin' to get out of my skin
Day after lonely day
You'd send me back again
[Chorus]
I have stood inside this prison
I have touched its stony walls
I know before you try to run
You gotta learn to crawl
I tried to leave it all behind me
Drove all night just to drive all day
But the walls of this prison still surround me
And I can't break away
[Verse 2]
I held you so close
I thought my soul would break
But you were just a ghost
The holiest mistake
I will not be a judge
Or the one to set you free
I'll just keep on drivin'
And time's a friend to me
I was high and dry
Like the Kansas sky
If I ached for any more
I knew I'd surely die
Night after night
Tryin' to get out of my skin
Day after lonely day
You'd send me back again
[Chorus]
I have stood inside this prison
I have touched its stony walls
I know before you try to run
You gotta learn to crawl
I tried to leave it all behind me
Drove all night just to drive all day
But the walls of this prison still surround me
And I can't break away
[Verse 2]
I held you so close
I thought my soul would break
But you were just a ghost
The holiest mistake
I will not be a judge
Or the one to set you free
I'll just keep on drivin'
And time's a friend to me
