Silver Shoes
I BUILT MY OWN PRISON 
Thom Bishop


Chorus  My love my love where can you be
              I’m sure you’re not listening you must know it’s me
              I’m blind so blind now that I see
              I built my own prison when I set you free

It’s that time of the night again
My heart’s not right and I can’t say when
When will I get over all this feeling
Here I am at the end of the night
Sky is gray but at least it’s light
One look in the mirror is too revealing

             (chorus)

Clouds won’t break and the birds don’t sing
Mailman’s late and the phone won’t ring
Hoping that you haven’t gone off too far
Here I am as the day winds down
Thinking I ought to leave this town
Maybe just by chance I’ll land where you are

        (chorus)

Doors that won’t open and doors that don’t close
Doors that just slam in your face
I was the one who told you to go
Now I’ve been put in my place

It’s that time of the night again
I’m wound up tight and I can’t say when
When will I just put it all behind me
Staring out at the morning light
Sky’s too blue and the sun’s too bright
Here I am why won’t you come and find me

        (chorus)

I built my own prison when I set you free
