scene xi wretched existence




my soul is burning,
but i'm smiling
bad choices i've been making
unsure if i'm lying.

blinded by the pain
deaf to the screams,
here we go again
drowning in my tears,
multiplying fears;
i am but alive
and living in this
wretched life.

living in a world
unable to change,
drowning in a life
where i can't escape,
imprisoned in this
wretched existence,
like a bird in a cage;
wings clipped,
can't you see
that my freedom
has been stripped?
bounded hands
and eyes wide open,
forced to see
this reality unfold
where there's
no certainty and morality
of victory my heart
desires for.

lips sewn shut
unable to voice
my thoughts,
so they run
wild in my head,
it's mess, you see,
i'm unable to
think straight
and all that's left
in my wake
is but chaos;
and i'm helpless
and shattered,
bound to this
wretched life;
the isolation has
left me weak,
unable to fight,
my aching fists
ache for a fight.

laying helpless
surrounded by the world
the truth has
never been so bleak,
i have yet
to except the
fate that is to
be faced;
burning shackles
searing into my flesh,
my bones rattle;
blinded by the pain,
i am but deaf
to the torture
and pain.

the unfathomable past
of strife
where it had
led me to this life,
hands that had been
tainted red;
the monster born
inside of me,
trying to wish
for paradise
yet i remain corrupt,
my body is
is paralysed,
but i'm still
searching for a
way out.

foreign voices
are but my own,
unknown scratches
from own claws,
the sins that
i have to pay for,
a life stuck in hell,
whatever else could
i wish for?
