Ann-Marita: Music
Done Doin' Time
(Ann-Marita)
Words and music by Ann-Marita Garsed
DONE DOIN’ TIME
1. I’m doin’ a total one-eighty
Turning this downward spiral around
Got so much to live for,
and too much to lose
Won’t turn myself in
to heartache and blues
2. Ain’t waiting for no one to save me
I’m fin’lly convinced I can stand on my own
These limitations I’d
put on myself
Are staying right here in this cold prison cell
(CHORUS):
Clearing my head
of bad memories
That pile of old baggage
ain’t coming with me
Gonna break off these shackles and leave’em behind
I’m done doin’ time
in the prison of my mind
(BRIDGE):
And so what if I’ve got
some battlescars
out in the open
I’ve got a lifetime
of good times
to catch up on
Can’t believe how much time I have wasted
without even knowin’
Life is too short
to cover the ground that’s collapsed under your feet
Move on
(CHORUS REPEAT X 2):
Clearing my head
of bad memories
That pile of old baggage
ain’t coming with me
Gonna break off
these shackles
and leave’em behind
I’m done doin’ time
in the prison
Clearing my head
of bad memories
That pile of old baggage
ain’t coming with me
Gonna break off
these shackles
and leave’em behind
I’m done doin’ time in the prison
of my mind
