They tell you that you are going to get better
No
You have to get better

Yet you can't even live a life because they are keeping you prisoner
Video taping you at night, monitoring your medicine and food intake
Making sure the knives are locked away

They want you to want to live
But why would you want to if the life they're giving you isn't worth living
In fact it shouldn't even be labeled as living, but surviving
Existing in a world that offers you nothing and you offer it the same
