With dead and blank expressions on our faces,
It shows how much we have changed when locked up in such dead places.
With lifeless eyes, and smiles that don't mean a thing,
We cut ourselves to know we still breath, just to feel the sting.
With ever closing hearts and minds,
We've lost ourselves as the path of life winds.
We turn our faces away from everything we once held dear,
Our vision is cloudy when once it had been so clear.
Children forced to become adults,
With supressed memories as the only results.
With tears locked away,
We prepare to embark on another day.
Slaves to everyone's will save for our own,
we are forced to leave everything we have ever known.
Such a perfect society,
But it is filled with anxiety.
People long to escape,
But our plans never do take shape.
And so we remain trapped,
Where we will have to learn to adapt.
