Jail

Sometimes a relationship is like being in a prison cell, you just want to get out but more often than not your stuck looking through the bars waiting for the day you can break free.

I sit alone

In my cold, dark cell

I lay prone

In my own personal hell

You’ve got me trapped

Behind these lies

Maybe once the chains have snapped

You’ll see the pain in my eyes

 

I just need some space to clear my head

I’ve got to escape before I end up dead

Close my eyes just to get away

I don’t think I can take another day
I hate every moment of this

I feel it slipping away with every kiss

 

I can’t see beyond it all

I don’t want to see

The pain that makes me fall

Into a sea of my own misery

They say it loves company

Well I know it now true

I always wanted to get free

I just couldn’t break through

 

I just need some space to breathe

I’ve got to escape, before I begin to seethe

Close my eyes to forget the pain

I don’t think I can stand the rain

I hate the thought of all of this

I feel it slipping, my world is amiss

 

I dream of making my escape
But much like you

These bars keep changing shape

A form so untrue

I don’t want to hold hands

I only want to fade away

I leave my fate to the timeless sands

Awaiting a new day
