Escape

Symptom of my own disease

Locked away in a cage within a cage

How do you unlock yourself

When the key is locked within you?

I'm digging my fingers into my own flesh

Nails caked with skin

Blood stains my sheets

As I writhe about

I can see the key

It's right there...

But I must plunge my hand

Into my own chest

And rip the little piece of metal

From my own beating heart

To escape your own prison

Is to risk your own death

Not risk...

It would take a miracle to stop the bleeding

Of your own disembowelment

What is this strange animal

Fighting with itself

'till death

G-d save me from this trap

From this maze...

This riddle

I fear I will never see the sun
