Lonely locked up
Thinking...Thinking...
I swear to God
This cell is shrinking

What time is it?
No way to tell
How long have I
Been in this cell?

Locked up like an animal
In a cage
I can't take any more
I start to rage

I kick the door
I scream, I shout
Yet no one comes
To let me out

Madness creeps in
I hear a voice
Telling me
I have no choice

I pray for answers
Some other way
Silent as usual
He's got nothing to say

Death of reason
I lose all hope
I find a place
To tie the rope

I write a letter
Like every day
You won't read it
But I write it anyway

Step off the edge
Said my goodbyes
I feel the pressure
Behind my eyes

I've made my choice
No turning back
The world around me
Fades to black

A lifetime of regrets
Run through my head
But don't weep for me
I was already dead.
