Pictures with smiles
Captured that moment in time
But look into my eyes
To see the truth that lies beneath

I wonder if I can set sail
Without the winds drawing me
Back to the looming shadow
That I'm anchored to

When the sun goes down
I know I'm safe and sound
Even when the sun comes round
I'm in trouble

I hide behind this veil
Like a thunderstruck willow
One day I can lift this shroud
And see the world not through
Swollen eyes of red and blue

Mundane days for me
Are nightmares to you
Please put me in an eternal dream
With freedom just like you

Fists of fury
Do I deserve it
Love is life
And nothings perfect

Eggshells broken
I didn't mean for that
You push me back
Before I can say sorry

Stories and films
They don't see
What love is like
This is love to me
Some notes of my perception of entrapment. I was pretty high on ketamine when I wrote this and the next day was quite surprised how coherent it was. I also very much enjoy writing for the opposite gender. The image I had in my head, gosh, was I an emotional wreck. I prayed for this poor girl to get out this relationship. Sadly I couldn't make that true.
