It's a place where I lose myself
A palace, a chateau even
It's where my eyes ache
And I become a heathen
It's a leech, it suctions
To my leg in my left pocket
I defeat its functions
When I cease and lock it
It's a place where migraines spawn
Where I am a wandering fawn
Alone and heartbroken
Waiting for a word to be spoken
But there isn't a single one
Nothing uttered from my tongue
Just a device that becomes
My leader and my god
Its function is to reduce
Me and to produce
A captive bone bag

It's a place where I lose myself
A palace, a chateau even
It's where my eyes ache
And I become a heathen
It's a leech, it suctions
To my leg in my left pocket
I defeat its functions
When I cease and lock it
It's a place where migraines spawn
Where I am a wandering fawn
Alone and heartbroken
Waiting for a word to be spoken
But there isn't a single one
Nothing uttered from my tongue
Just a device that becomes
My leader and my god
Its function is to reduce
Me and to produce
A captive bone bag
"what am i?"
