Prison: golden, delicate room
A window to kill the undesired gloom
Empty mind, save for my thoughts
A clean dream, corpse flower bloomBed sheets white, a ghost that died
A place to dwell for those denied
I am the King, the King of my own
My Ace to play, my face to hideMy passion, hide my obsession
Something one would ever question
Eyes open, gavel down
Pull the curtain, enter, discretionA wall, rough, drove me insane
The bricks they hurled, each course, my pain
The rungs, my friends, fallen, broken
Horses, my men... it's myself, againGrilles, so close, close a solution
Secret garden, carrion, confusion
A poppy-seed too small, insignificant
Sunset bloom, clean minded delusionArisen
Glorious sun, cotton clouds, azure void
Each step taken, more paranoid
Reverb in the stairwell, my nightmares
Wrecking ball, my heart destroyedHollow room for my mind to breathe
Cold, like mint, water through teeth
But the mint, rotten and water grey
Give up, it's forever stuck, its sheathe
