I'm an animal A puppet on a string They control me And I don't feel a thing They think that they own me I'm a monkey in a cage And they can't distract me From the war that has been waged I'm envious of their freedom My mind fills with rage I'm sick and claustrophobic my skin is turning green My head is spinning They ignore my scream A sharp piece of wire Sticking out from the weave I push to my wrists And I start to bleed My blood turns to embers as my skin turns to ash My soul leaks away Forgetting it's past No real death here It's all to soon No freedom should come From forging your tomb For this is only a dream Bestowed upon me by the moon Oh how I long for an opening A way out of this mess A pill or savior Comes to take my stress My hair is falling out My bones begin to show Starving for a familiar face Someone that I know But all that they tell me It'll be over soon Lay down and rest love They whistle me a tune All of these beautiful lies fill my head A pretty whisper wakes up the dead This is only a prism dream Dressed under a grey screen Those bright eyes can't stay hopeful A star plummeting to the ground They fight with me using actions ever hurtful But this is only a dream
