My fractured sense of self, my only company
The light fades with each moment
With your steady pollution of my mind
Collective memories blur like poison
Screaming for solace yet nothing comes out
It feels like there is sand in my mouth
Grinding and grating against my teeth
It's like thousands of eyes are staring at me
Such a toxic web you weave
Encased in it, I can't breathe
My blood cupped in your hands like an offering
You pulled me under
Your hands outstretched for your prize
I would rather bleed out than pretend it is alright
Trying to claw my way back to the top
As you drive me towards isolation
Feasting on others until they famine
Nothing but flesh and bone
Withering skin and starving
Drained for your nourishment
It feels like I'm shackled
To a pain that I've never known
Lost in this maze of misgivings
As if I have nowhere left to go
I am a prisoner here
Trapped and confined
I am a prisoner here
Bound and broken
Drown in this cascade of pain and grief
These feelings of emptiness are filling me
I writhe in discomfort
I pray to be free
It's like thousands of eyes are staring at me
Such a toxic web you weave
Encased in it, I can't breathe
My blood cupped in your hands like an offering
You pulled me under
Your hands outstretched for your prize
I would rather bleed out than pretend it is alright
Trying to claw my way back to the top
As you drive me towards isolation
Your cold caress chills me to the spine
Locked in a gaze of your devilish eyes
Inhaling your stale affection
Gasping to find clean breath
My blood cupped in your hands like an offering
I am a prisoner here
