The Animals

The Animals were an English band of the 1960s, formed in Newcastle upon Tyne during the early part of the decade. The band relocated to London on finding fame in 1964. The Animals were known for their gritty, bluesy sound and deep-voiced frontman Eric Burdon, as exemplified by their signature song and transatlantic No.1 hit single, "The House of the Rising Sun", as well as by hits such as "We Gotta Get out of This Place", "It's My Life", and "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood". The band balanced tough, rock-edged pop singles against rhythm and blues-oriented album material. They were known in the US as part of the British Invasion. more »

Everlasting, my past song, to my friends
Even policemen on the street, smile and say hello they always bend
The telephone it rings, it cuts me, like a knife blade
Fever, messing up my mind, there's no escape

Prisoner of the light
My fears are falling
Bars on all the doors and windows
Prisoner of the light
The walls keep closing
Caught between the light and shadow

As a little child, I'd see the street light glooming through my window
Making up my own moves by a shadow dancing on the walls
I see the world outside just like another planet and hornet
And the monster that creates coming at me from down the hall
No escape

Prisoner of the light
My fears keep falling
Bars on all the doors and windows
Prisoner of the light
The walls keeps closing
Caught between the light and shadow

I'm a prisoner of the light
My fears keeps falling
Bars on all the doors and windows
Prisoner of the light
The walls keep closing
Caught between the light and shadow

Prisoner of the light

I burn the midnight oil and no one hears me working
I have until the dawn in the dark room all night
A siren moans outside wailing like a tiger
Havoc in my mind and I know there's no escape

I'm a prisoner of the light
My fears keep falling
Bars on all the doors and windows
Prisoner of the light
The walls keep closing
Caught between the light and shadow

Prisoner of the light
Prisoner of the light
Yeah, I'm a prisoner of the light
Prisoner of
Prisoner of the light

My fears keep falling
I'm a prisoner of the light
Prisoner of the light
Prisoner of the light

My fears keep falling
Caught between the light and shadow
Prisoner of the light
My fears keep falling
Caught between the light and shadow
