I walk along the shore alone,
There is no one there to comfort me,
The waves reach out to touch me,
Trying to bring me into a new kind of captivity.
I walk only because I am forced to obey,
My legs just fall into the daily rountine,
I don't need to think anymore,
There is nothing worth living or dying for.
No longer seeing the point,
My mind's in a trance,
It's long lost to who I used to be,
I'm captive in the body that was once my own.
My soul struggles to leave this world,
My heart is a black pit of despair,
I feel no longer in control,
I find no way to leave your circle of betrayal and faslehoods.
You bring me in with kind words,
You tell me what to do,
I was a fool not to see what you were doing to me,
My soul and mind were stolen from me.
You touched me with your soft hands,
I didn't see the leather inside,
You gazed at me with promising eyes,
But I couldn't see through to the lies.
You told it was right to do what you ordered,
Why couldn't I see the other faces of sorrow,
Telling me it was a deception,
Explaining with eyes all your lies.
I fell for all your tricks,
Did as you asked without a hint of resistance,
Little did I know you weaved out my soul and stole all my knowledge,
I follow now only the path before me.
You stole me who I once was,
Now I am only a drudge following obediance,
But oh how I want to defy you,
And find out who this empty shell of a body was.
For my memories you also stole,
All I know is that I find discomfort in your prescence,
I find dreams that tell me so,
So tell me what has happened and let me go.
I walk once more on the beach outside,
Mingling with the other lost souls,
There is no where to go now,
You've crushed all our souls now.
The high swells look mighty nice now,
Their white brims lick at my toes,
I want to reach out and hold them,
Let them take me away to a better place.
I can't leave I can't go to the waves,
I'm too weak for words,
You've mutilated me so far I find I can't even leave,
Is there no way to leave your entrapment?
The stars look down to me,
They twinkle with tears,
But even they can't save me,
If I can not save myself.
It's time to go back to where you will change us,
The body's just glide back inside,
They are empty now,
There's nothing to us now.
I won't go back,
I will refuse all you put upon me,
My will is so weak now,
But follow I will not.
You scream out the door for me to return,
You call me names that I do not understand,
You've shown who you are,
You scream that I must come back to you that I have to.
I stand towards you,
My eyes now black show the defiance,
There is no way I will return now,
No matter how much you pull I have cut all the strings.
You hold up a glass that contains all I was,
Still I stand still,
I've seen all of your tricks,
Your hands let go and it shatters to the ground.
I am free to leave now,
You have finally killed me now,
This shell has a place now,
You gasp and scream seeing your mistake.
I run into the waves,
The foam all around me,
Your running after me,
But you'll never catch me.
I dip under and under not coming up,
I hear you behind me,
You're reaching to grab me,
It's too late now I'm leaving now.
The swell rises up,
It's breaking above us,
The white and the navy all around me now,
There is only black everything's black.
I rise to the stars,
You sink to the fires,
Your death I've finally caused,
Those lost souls are finally free.
