Trapped Inside the Cage of My Soul

Inside me, empty, is how you left
Confused, scared, alone

I am confused, I am scared, I am alone, I am without you
You are heartless without compassion
I will watch you die, I will not cry

Haze clouds these translucent eyes
Sweat creeps down callused hands
The lies outside, I cannot feel
The pain inside burns

And as tears slip, she does it again
As tears slip she does it again
Scarred, bruised and broken
To the ground in tears I fall
Sadness locked inside me

Time ticks by, and soon I realize life won't end, it can't end
Not like this, not without sorrow and not with fear

I know you are scared, 'cause I am too
And as tears slip she does it again
Haze clouds these translucent eyes
Sweat creeps down callused hands
The lies outside, I cannot feel
The pain inside burns

I know you cared, why did you leave?
From my knees, I now stand
Begging for freedom from my cage
Now praising life for what I was given
From my knees, I now stand
Bleeding for you from my heart
Now hating life for what was taken from me, by you
