we keep them in cages
we want all of our friends to see
so we put them on stages
they should be out there running free

my friend on the table
won't stop scratching at the glass
I've chosen to disable
this animal's natural path
This isn't about domesticated pets. This is the reason I don't go to zoos. It is so sad to see that look in an animals eyes.
Am I getting to close
to your heart.
Do you take distance
for leaving in silence.
Can you take off your
protective shell.
Show your naked skin.
Be fearless in the dark.
Shine your light
from within.
Are you reaching
out for me.
Do you even know
what you mean to me.
My words can make
you happy or sad.
It's your choice wich
one it could be.
I am not one to treat a beast decent
but I've fed that demon as of recent
this creature eats my peaceful pieces
with hate increased, my whole decreases
no more free meals
Im confused
Im unsure
Where's my mind
Out the door
With my heart,
And my life,
You took it all
You took my world.
You were the sin I could excuse
the mistake I knew I'd choose
The regret I didn't mind living with
As long as we both knew the truth.
Trying to get in sync, before I sink
Don't think.
Won't speak.
All I do
Is breathe and repeat.
She was okay with being used
Because she could use them too
Use them to get away from her mind
From reality, from time
From the things she was scared to find out about her own selfish kind
