lyrics

Another day and I am over it
This is no way to live, but it's where I sit
This emptiness inside is how I feel all the time
Stuck inside these walls — is this where I die

I'd rather die than have your security
So give me the axe or just drive it into me

So here I am, still here — haven't turned the page
Feeling my life fade, digesting in this cage
Just bitterness inside till the resentment climbs
I'll find my way out and claim the one place that's mine

I dream of days where I feel the trees
And see the world as I please
I hear the chants of wars in my head
But then they laugh, and fill me with dread

Living in these confines, trapped in outlines
Built by the architects who seek to kill my mind
Celebrating docility, they rob me of my ability
To think for myself and leave them all behind

Don't act like you know me
Or pretend you know my heart
Don't act like you know me
Your eyes misled you from the start

Your lies misled me from the fucking start

Living in a box just isn't for me
No, I'll tear it apart (I'll fucking tear it apart)
And quench the thirst of my will to be free
With the blood dripping down from my broken fingers
