Simmer Away - Harrisons

I’ve been lying in this cell

This side unforgiving Hell

Watching people come and go

I have been here for twelve years

And I have cried one thousand tears

Then I simmer away

Then I simmer away

Then I simmer away

Then I simmer away

And for my crime I will pay

By throwing my life away

As the rats run by feet

And I’m too afraid to sleep

It’s hard to keep my head held high

When all I wanna do is die

Then I simmer away

And I simmer away

And I simmer away

And I simmer away

As I look in the mirror

And the cracks starts to appear

In the grayness of my skin

I’ve got to let the sunlight

Both my eyes sunk into my face

I’ve been stuck in this damn place

Then I simmer away

And I simmer away

And I simmer away

I keep my life inside of a paper cup

And I feel like I’m always giving up

When I see my friends again

Will they look at me the same

And I feel like I’m always on my own

And I feel like I’m always on the run

When the damage is already done

And I look into your eyes

And soon I realise

What has been has come before

Won’t you please show me the door

And I simmer away

Then I simmer away

And I simmer away

And I simmer away

Away

Away

Away
