Wake me

Shake me God
Wake me
For this life
Is naught but a dream
Yet I am caught
In the charade
Like a fly
Stuck in a web
Threads
Intricately spun
With sinister purpose
To trap me
To suck the blood
Out of my dying veins
Until there is nothing left

Shake me God
Wake me
Before it's too late!
I know this isn't real
Yet I'm trapped
In the pretense
Like an innocent beast
Leg caught
In jaws of metal
Laid down
With sinister purpose
To strip my dead hide
For selfish greed
Leaving my body to rot in the open

Shake me God
Wake me
Please
I want out of this dream!
