Life Sentance

You can’t understand the need to cease,
but you don’t have my eyes,
so you hold no sway.
You don’t have the body
that breaks at the first light of day.
You don’t live in my prison
without hope for release.

Everything that’s good is killing me,
everything that’s free is making me bleed.
I’ve paid for every second here.
Now I’m down to the last and cannot see past.

Take me,
break me,
mold me into something good.
Use me,
confuse me,
take away all I understood.
I follow your will,
I bend to your call.
I can no longer see past your thrall.
