Life Is A Prison

Life is a prison

And I'd tell you what I heard

Only that I can't

I can't

"I also want to give up

But then I see my friends..."

I used to feel like that

Keyword: USED

I may not have wanted to go to school

But the thought

That there are people who cares for me

Was enough motivation

But it got worse

It fucking got worse

I can't even get out of bed

I can't even do what I used to love

This thing

Whatever this is

Robbed me of those things I loved

Now the only thing

That's left is this void

Everyday

It gets larger

And I'm just counting

Down the days

When it finally

Consumes me

I'm tired

So fucking tired

I don't even know what to do anymore

This thing inside me

Is constantly making me into something I am clearly not

I don't even know who I am

There are times

I'd laugh

I'd smile

Only to feel this crack in my heart

And I'd realize

It would be so much better

If I wasn't here

Everything would fall into place

And I'd finally have what I really want

But life hangs onto me

It won't let go

I'm still chained

Trapped

Forever a puppet

And it fucking hurts

It hurts

To the point that I

Just want to grab the heart inside me

And squeeze

Until no more red is left

'Cause maybe

This is the key

And I'd finally be free of this prison

This prison

Where the people around me

Are the guards

And the reason why I'm here

Is  life

And everything doesn't make sense at all

I look at these guards

And see nothing

Feel nothing

I'm supposed to feel something

Right?

But even my heart

Gets tired

And I fear

That when it is time

I'd still feel nothing
