Once was progress is now a standstill
Once was movement is now in torment
A stimulating world is now mindkill
Anger and self-hate this soul underwent
Laboring to save a ship that will never float
A burden that anchors us to the abyss
Holding onto a wish
that will never bear fruit even close to what was put in
Am I damned to forever work the boat
of another man's hopeless dreams?
I must withstand near constant mental siege
While never lifting a finger in defense
Insults, degradation, and anger immense
I must absorb... attack... from the household liege
A 'feudal' lord indeed
Feeding off of the disruption he seeds
Agree and support his fantasy world or face the consequences
Bringing everyone down
then blaming everyone but himself for what he has sown.
A crown that is even sanctioned by physical violence, if necessary
A castle of of self glory is his mind
Ignorance and Arrogance it's dark moat
Just don't rock the boat
and you'll only receive the usual siege... of bullshit.
But you see
the liege made some mistakes
in the repair and upkeep of his piece of the rock
and without me and my fiancee's presence
he and his queen will face dire times
how convenient for the liege
His intentions have only been to separate me and my lover from the beginning
even though he claims opposite
his actions speak louder
and hence point to the truth of the matter
Such is the shit I endure every day
it 'tis a dangerous game
for my lovers heart
I cannot walk away
FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION
Trapped in between worlds
By the mutual love of another
and the hate of her father
While the world passes me by
