At least they haven’t noticed my fear
A vicious animal with his mouth open
Jaws unlocked ready to devour
Yet his appetite only hungers for my mind
Parched but solely thirsts for my thoughts
I cannot stand here
In a sea of molasses that you call sugar
In a boat leading to death
Though you call it paradise
Who has ever been in a paradise
That never rests but bleeds
Drenched in the stuck that keeps you down
Believing you’re actually up
Believing the shadow that’s not you
But an imitation
I don’t want to be drawn in
To your silly games
Nor your mindless trap
I will keep my hands clean
Keep your normal
So that my door may close
And peace shall be mine once more
