Well I was dreaming in a courtyard lost in thought
I raised my eyes and saw em all standing there
Well I don’t know if they were scared of me or not
All I know is they were scared
A couple of them pointed and said that’s him
Well that right there was all the evidence
They all circled around and closed me in
Well I’ve been closed in somewhere ever since
Well I’m one of the ones who know not what they do
Things don’t work too well inside my head
But if what those people say is really true
Lord help me now I might as well be dead
Well my lawyer came but he was in a hurry
Between you and me he seemed kind of high
When I finally stood before the judge and jury
They wouldn’t even look me in the eye
My mother said they’ll never set you free
She turned her face away as if to hide
I don’t know if momma cried for me
All I know is momma cried
And the preacher talked of all eternity
And the peace I’d find waiting on the other side
Well I don’t know if Jesus died for me
All I know is Jesus died
Tonight they shut the door and they took the key
They left me in this dark old cell to rot
There’s a bloody angel sits in here with me
And I can’t tell if it’s a dream or not
I can’t tell if it’s a dream or not
