House Of Cries

Concealed, I’m sitting there
Numb, unable to react

Unreal, abandoned there
Like a specter in the dark

I was born a quiet man
I was lured into a trap
Swallowing pills every day
I don’t know who I am

Unsafe, I’m dying there
Eating my very own heart out

Rabid souls, we become taint
Too taint to see the light

Cries of torment, cries of pain
Pierce through the city
They would never go away

Time has come to realize we’re condemned
We’ll die screaming inside the house of cries

Altered, I see you there
Tying my feet to the ground

I’d wish to see the chains break
And vanish out of sight

I would scream if I had voice left
I would tear my chords apart
Nothing heals, all deteriorates
Am I left here to die?
