Behind the cover of skin,
A blindness, a secret kept so deep.
Rough edges need to be sawed down,
To fit into the rest of the crowd.
Eyes weary and there's no right,
Everything is wrong.
Enclosed in a cage,
Just sitting there for the world to witness.
Scraps thrown at you, the innocent,
Stomach is sick and you're suffering.
Barred in, there's no way out,
Toughening up the mind within.
Seeing the ones who cared stroll by,
An animal in a zoo, nothing new.
Calling for a new start,
Detox and refresh the mind.
Carve out the cold,
Build in a fire full of warmth.
Playing tricks with the others,
Feeling the same, part of the clang.
Escape is upon you,
You're allowed back into the real world.
No more white walls,
The colour shines out through the cracks.
Wrapped in plastic,
You never did witness or see it.
The harsh humidity of the culture,
The way they walked the country.
Alone you waited to be called,
Moment of changing the channel.
Drain out the blood,
Cover in the scars shown.
A stab in the dark,
Twists and turns along the road.
Silver and gold plated,
The future is in your hands.
You made the decision to capture the bad,
Now, you have to take the consequence and run.
