It doesn't let you escape
It claws you down
Holds you against your will
Shreds whatever dignity you have left to spare
You don't ask for this
You're not chosen
You're alive
But dead
And you're stuck
How does it become?
How does it evolve?
It grows deeper and deeper
Into the mindless robotic soul
And you can't stop it
Catch it before it hits
It goes past your protect
And it stays there
It whips you at different times
And you can't explain
You're friends ask
But you don't understand
So how would they?
If you look
It's beautiful
It's you
It makes you remember
That you can feel
You're not numb
You're living
Even if you feel like you're dying.
Hell can be a cure
But so can life.
