Harshly marked boundaries
Foundations of sweat and stone
Jump through the hoops,
Slowly crumble once helped but now alone
Reflect their lies
Pierce your eyes
Deflect beauty and submerge ideals
Loose your edge and follow orders
For this is a race run by every horse
For this is what we have trained for all our lives
For we need not be clever we just need to follow course
For this is what will win our wives
One locked door followed by fifty more
Poured into the mould
Ready for close inspection
Filled with what our souls hold
Full of infection
Do what you are told
It is a mutual selection
Only one way to win gold
Loose your
Is there any life on this broken planet's floor?
Can we breathe? Trapped between life's door,
All alone in the crowds
Try to scream but no words come out
Why do we walk when our legs are tied?
Why do we talk when our words are lies?
Why do we see when our eyes are blind?
Why do we search when there is no joy to find?
Born into bondage, wrought out of chains
Suffocating on smoke try to breathe again
Cut me free, let me loose
Just let me find that dusty noose
Melted tears and fearful weeps
Precious truths which no one keeps
Blinded by your thoughts of profanity
A life that's free, uncensored beauty
