Escape into the darkness; I must break free from this cage. Soulless eyes, they burn inside With fear and anguished rage. This place is full of hatred And I must leave it behind. Toxic breath and stinking death Still linger in my mind.
When all the world is fast asleep, I’ll escape into the night. I will sleep beneath the stars, And when I wake, I’ll see the light. Tonight, I bite the hand that feeds me Nightmares on a plate. I will greet the waiting world, Even if they come to hate me.
I try to think, but all the memories Remaining are fire in my mind. Stay away! The poison dripping From your eyes is liquid Iodine.
Now, I run for shelter, Seeking sweet respite. My thoughts laid bare, I will not fare. I have no strength to fight. What use is this vessel, This form of untapped might? What use at all if I take the fall And meet my end tonight?
Fire floods the blackest night; Burn my eyes just with the sight. I see the forest falling down Right before my eyes. A phantom burning from my past; But I will not succumb so fast. No element will hold me back, And I will claim my prize.
“What you’re experiencing is anxiety.”
I try to escape, but all the memories Remaining are fire in my mind. Stay away! The searing pain your Presence brings is something I despise. Now I can think. Despite the flames That live inside, I feel like I’ll be fine. Stay away! My wounds are healing. I don’t need you, so keep your Iodine.
