I'm a fool who's rage is written on a page Flickering with fire, fueled by a painful desire Unruly and unjust it burns without control Till its content with its remains of dark ash and coal Seeking no shelter, though it must be contained She screams as she cries trapped in a cage Walls adoring her, only growing stronger with age Dreading the knocking that echos so loud Fumbling with the keys, throwing them to the ground Huddling into one's self, as the world grows c o l d Yearning for somebody who can allow her to be whole As she kicks and she screams, pushing them away It's difficult to get past this tremendous facade That holds so well, ingrained into her being Disregarding the world and others well-being How heartless and cold How selfish and bold Pitiful you are with that narcissist mask, you hold Dance me another dance Within that ballroom of yours Filled with the most beautiful flowers And those demons that taunt at all hours Its cold deep within, even with fires set aflame As she continues burning within her own stone-cold cage.
Here we are again, Square one.

Setting fires within a castle that you build to protect your own Burning all who dare to draw in to close Though the knocking won't stop
