Utter Silence

You tied my wrists with rope
Put duck tape over my mouth
And locked me in a cage
Then told me I couldn't speak

So I sat isolated
While you turned me into a villain
Having them think I was darkness
Having me think I am darkness

So how was the battle fair?
How was it okay for me to suffer?
To let my demons beat me
Until I couldn't feel anymore?

I'm alone
In cold cold walls
Wanting to be saved
But I can't make a sound

I've been silenced
My power has been stripped from me
Allowing me to feel small

I'm vanishing and no one sees
I want out of here
The demons need to leave me alone
But I'm bleeding so much

What's the use to cry for help
When you're halfway dead
So you push them all away
And lie alone instead

There's no one to save the silenced
So I'll suffer in pain
Because I am the bad guy
And deserve to be this way
