I'm in a cage

These invisible walls keep me in

The glass ceiling is continually lowered

It threatens to smother me

The farther I run, the closer my walls

The more I trip, the tighter my chains

This false daylight blinds me

It burns my body, mind, and soul

I'm controlled by those who don't know themselves

I'm a mortal, damnit

I can't live up to that standard

Every time I fall short, the bar is raised another notch

You can't see what this does to me

I'm fractured

Slivers of me fall through the cracks in your palm

The more you pull, the more you lose

I don't hate you

But I can't love you

Can a servant truly love his master without losing himself?

I sigh, I cry

You let me be alone

You just can stand my emotions

I want blood

It, you, me...

It's all the same

Weeping is all I've ever known

Gnashing my teeth, tearing my hair

Repeating myself to make you listen

I had such love in me

But no longer can I

To protect my life, I sold my heart

Someone has it now

I do not miss it; I do not have the time
