Why isn the second verse written for The Prisoner sung on the album?
According to Curt, the lyric sheets for The Hurting were printed before the album version of ‘The Prisoner’ was fully recorded, and it turned out that the verse just didn’t “fit” with the song. This verse is also absent from the original version of the song, found on the ‘Pale Shelter (You Don’t Give Me Love)’ single.
