Doors--run through the doors. The shape of age is not Hate--the great escape, So strange, the mouth will gape. Walls--they hold you in; Your face will age and rot. Shame--the bed you've made, So vague, the sand parade. Cursed--you all are cursed To stay within these walls. Pain--a mindless state, They made the jacket straight. Take the time--commit the crime; Unaware of precautions they will take. Above the jail--the sirens wail, Casting a shadow on all those who lie awake.

The Siren's Song
Doors--run through the doors. The shape of age is not Hate--the great escape, So strange, the mouth will gape. Walls--they hold you in; Your face will age and rot. Shame--the bed you've made, So vague, the sand parade. Cursed--you all are cursed To stay within these walls. Pain--a mindless state, They made the jacket straight. Take the time--commit the crime; Unaware of precautions they will take. Above the jail--the sirens wail, Casting a shadow on all those who lie awake.
