I keep thinking We are no longer prisoners Bound and manacled together Pulverized by the thought That we could one day be freed I was always the alibi You led and i followed Always one step behind Was i too vulnerable? Perhaps But now the ad naseam has resurfaced When i think about what happened She didn’t deserve it What we did to her Only still to this day i don’t see Much shame in your eyes They seem jovial My brain a kaleidoscope Of gray and black thoughts You know exactly what i know That we will never be freed We are still prisoners Shackled and caged like untamed animals

I keep thinking We are no longer prisoners Bound and manacled together Pulverized by the thought That we could one day be freed I was always the alibi You led and i followed Always one step behind Was i too vulnerable? Perhaps But now the ad naseam has resurfaced When i think about what happened She didn’t deserve it What we did to her Only still to this day i don’t see Much shame in your eyes They seem jovial My brain a kaleidoscope Of gray and black thoughts You know exactly what i know That we will never be freed We are still prisoners Shackled and caged like untamed animals
