Is that smile for me? Did You come by it honestly? Can I show you around? Can I help you tear your fences down? 'Cause I know you foster few illusions, suffer no fools You don't leave much to chance But you're out past the breakers, driftin fast I can see it at a glance You've been a long time locked inside Long time all alone at night Prisoner of wisdom, prisoner of pride Don't just waste away Don't just waste away Is that smile for me? Have you kept it hidden consciously? Just like an old time movie queen Always noticed, rarely seen And I got no answers, no magic cures And I got no plans But I know the darkness that haunts your eyes And I know those tremblin hands You've been a long time locked inside Long time all alone at night Prisoner of wisdom, prisoner of pride Don't just waste away Don't just waste away You've been a long time locked inside Long time all alone at night Prisoner of wisdom, passion, and pride Don't just waste away Don't just waste away
