Material world

Trapped in this material world;

All these material girls, possessed by their possessions

Trapped in this material world;

nothing I want, and nothing more

All these people, all these things

What are they really?

but just things,

and trinkets

and rings.

I'm Trapped;

Nowhere to go, nothing to give.
